TEA and LCA framework document for EverLoNG case studies. D4.3.1.
report
The EverLoNG project, part of the ACT initiative, focuses on integrating Ship-Based Carbon Capture (SBCC) technology on LNG-fuelled vessels to combat maritime emissions. The project demonstrates the potential for SBCC to significantly reduce maritime emissions while highlighting the associated economic and logistical challenges. Two case studies are central to this analysis: the Sleipnir semi-submersible crane vessel and a new built LNG carrier from TotalEnergies. These vessels represent different operational profiles and fuel use scenarios, with CO2 capture rates reaching up to 95% under optimal conditions. Ports of Rotterdam in The Netherlands and Port Arthur in Houston, US serve as hubs for unloading captured CO2, which is either permanently stored in projects like Northern Lights and Aramis or utilized for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) or chemical production (methanol/methane).
