Engineering Advancement Association of Japan and Sanyu Kisen Co Ltd have signed the bareboat charter contract of a demonstration test ship for Liquefied C02 transportation and tank system purchase contract. ENAA has been leading the development of a demonstration test ship and been developing LC02 tank system specifications. Sanyu Kisen has ordered manufacture the tank system based on the R&D by ENAA and construction of a demonstration test ship equipped with its tank system to Mitsubishi Shipbuilding Co Ltd, a member of the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Group. The vessel will be built at the Enoura Plant at MHI’s Shimonoseki Shipyard & Machinery Works. Upon building completion and the delivery, ENAA will charter the demonstration test ship from Sanyu Kisen to carry out research and development and demonstration tests for establishing LC02 ship transportation technology.The vessel is the demonstration test ship to transport LC02 for Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage project expected to be the first of its kind in the world.ENAA will operate the vessel from the second half of FY2023 for “CCUS R&D and Demonstration Related Project / Large-scale CCUS Demonstration in Tomakomai / Demonstration Project on C02 Transportation / R&D and Demonstration Project for C02 Marine Transportation”, which have been conducted by New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization since June 2021.ENAA, Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha Ltd, Nippon Gas Line Co Ltd and Ochanomizu University will accelerate R&D of the LC02 transportation technology and contribute to cost reduction of CCUS technology and LC02 safety, long-distance and large-scale transportation. In the demonstration projectENAA takes charge of planning, evaluation, analysis and coordination of R&D and demonstration project of LC02 ship transport technology and tank systems. “K" LINE promotes R&D on the safety and environmental evaluation of the demonstration LC02 carrier, backed by extensive experience in operating and managing of its ocean-going
