CO₂ shipping with direct offshore injection
How to get the CO₂ from your capture plant into permanent North Sea storage, by ship, without waiting for a pipeline. A technical walk-through of the full chain, from capture plant outlet to injection 1,500–3,500 m below the seabed.
- Conditioning and liquefaction at your site to ~40 bar and 5 °C
- The rotating-barge system that gives you continuous CO₂ offtake
- Direct injection via a Tower Offloading Unit, with no offshore terminal or long subsea pipeline
- Routes for coastal and inland plants across Europe

Inside the guide
CO₂ from source to sink
You install the capture plant. We take over at its outlet and handle everything from there. The guide explains each step of the chain and the interfaces your engineering team needs to plan for.
Your capture plant
We take responsibility for the concentrated CO₂ stream as it leaves the capture plant.
Conditioning & liquefaction
A unit next to the capture plant brings the CO₂ to approx. 40 bar and 5 °C for transport.
Transport
CO₂ loads into a barge moored near your site. A pusher tug takes the full barge out while a second one fills, so collection never stops.
Offshore interface
The barge moors at a Tower Offloading Unit. An on-tower pump raises the CO₂ to injection pressure and sends it through a short subsea line.
Permanent storage
Injected through wells into geological reservoirs 1,500–3,500 m below the seabed.

Engineers at hard-to-abate plants
You've optimised your process. You still emit CO₂ you can't avoid. Under EU targets of −55% by 2030 and −90% by 2040, that's a growing climate, cost and licence-to-operate risk. This guide shows a CCS route you can plan for now and scale as you need.
Cement & lime
Process emissions from calcination that efficiency alone can't remove.
Steel
Large point sources that need a bridge until new production routes are in place.
Waste-to-energy
Continuous flue-gas CO₂ streams, often close to ports and waterways.
Inland sites too
CO₂ travels by inland ship, rail car or truck to a port transfer terminal, then on by barge.
