MHI, SBM to Study Application of CO2 Capture Modules for Petrobras’ FPSOs
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) and Single Buoy Moorings, the subsidiary of SBM Offshore, have agreed to conduct a study for the application of CO2 capture modules on future floating production storage and offloading vessels (FPSOs) for Petrobras.This study will be conducted toward typical implementation of CO2 capture solutions for FPSOs.The module design for FPSOs is based on a combination of MHI's proprietary Advanced KM CDR Process CO2 capture technology and SBM's Fast4Ward principles.The study will focus on capture of the CO2 emitted by onboard gas turbines…
SBM Offshore, Petrobras to Assess Application of Carbon Capture Tech on FPSOs
SBM Offshore and Petrobras have signed an agreement to study the application of carbon capture modules on floating production, storage, and offloading (FPSO) units.The module design is based on an engineering and design study between SBM Offshore and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI), qualified by DNV. It is based on a combination of MHI’s proprietary CO2 capture technology and SBM Offshore’s Fast4ward principles.This compact modular solution allows a significant reduction of the overall emissions associated with the production of oil and gas from FPSOs…
Technology Centre Mongstad Sign MoU with DNV GL for CO2 Capture Technology
The world’s largest testing facility for carbon capture, Technology Centre Mongstad (TCM), has signed a collaborative agreement with DNV GL to deliver advisory and verification services for CO2 capture technology.According to a press release from the quality assurance and risk management company, the new global advisory partnership will offer advisory and verification services at TCM`s facilities on the west coast of Norway and other worldwide carbon capture projects.Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is the only available technology for mitigating climate change in certain industries such as cement production and the use of oil and gas.“We have been working with both CCS and verification of new technologies for the energy sector for a long time.
MHI CO2 Capture System Earns Environmental Award

MHI Awarded Concept Study of 3,400ton/day CO2 Recovery Facility
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI) has been awarded by Statoil, an international energy company with headquarters in Norway, to undertake a concept study for a technology qualification program (TQP) for one of the world's largest carbon dioxide (CO2) capture facilities. The approximately 3,400 tons-per-day (tpd) CO2 recovery system is targeted for installation at a 280 megawatt (MW) gas-fired combined heat and power (CHP) plant at Mongstad, on Norway's west coast. MHI will vie against other companies in a competition encompassing CO2 capture technology, facility performance, and construction and operation costs, towards facility construction slated to commence in 2016.
