Mitsui OSK Lines has acquired Approval in Principlefor design of a large-scale liquefied carbon dioxide carrier from Nippon Kaiji Kyokai. In June 2021, MOL launched research and development on the adoption of a large-scale liquefied CO2 carrier in response to a call for proposals by Japan's New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization to complete the conceptual design, under a project entrusted by NEDO to Japan CCS.The vessel design is one element of NEDO's "CCUS R&D and Demonstration Related Project/Large-scale CCUS Demonstration Project in Tomakomai/Demonstration Project on CO2 Transportation."The large-scale liquefied CO2 carrier is intended as a practical solution to the need for long-distance transport of CO2 on a scale of 1 million tonnes a year, based on NEDO's vision to implement CCUS technology.
