Malaysian shipping company MISC has signed MoUs with Japan’s Mitsui & Co., Korea’s Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) and Graz-based Andritz to explore opportunities on carbon capture and storage (CCS) solutions in the maritime value chain, it said on January 18.

MISC will collaborate with Mitsui on business opportunities across the CCS value chain, including the identification of potential CCS hubs, assessing the commercial and technical viability of CCS solutions.

Meanwhile, the partnership with SHI covers the joint development of the engineering, procurement and construction of the floating carbon dioxide solutions to facilitate and support the optimisation of offshore CCS projects.
