オンライン カジノ 比較 (AiP) Acquired from Two Classification Societies for Low-Pressure Type Liquefied CO2 Carriers undergoing Pursuit of Standardization toward Realization of Large-Scale International Transportation from 2028 onwards

Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha (オンライン カジノ 比較); Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha, Ltd. (“K” LINE); Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (MOL); Nihon Shipyard Co., Ltd., a joint venture for ship design and sales between Imabari Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. and Japan Marine United Corporation; Mitsui & Co., Ltd.; Mitsubishi Corporation and Mitsubishi Shipbuilding Co., Ltd., a part of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) Group have jointly acquired Approval in Principle (AiP)^*1オンライン カジノ 比較 American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) and Nippon Kaiji Kyokai (ClassNK) for two types of low-pressure type liquefied CO₂ (LCO₂) オンライン カジノ 比較 their joint development. A presentation ceremony took place on September 17 at the George R. Brown Convention Center, the venue of Gastech 2024, a major international conference on global energy and environmental issues, including natural gas, liquefied natural gas (LNG), and hydrogen, held in Houston, Texas.

Demand for LCO₂carriers is expected to grow in tandem with various CCS (Carbon dioxide Capture and Storage) projects involving the transportation of CO₂captured in Japan to storage sites located oversea. Recently, Mitsubishi Shipbuilding, オンライン カジノ 比較, Mitsui & Co. and Mitsubishi Corporation have collaborated to achieve standardization of LCO₂carriers suited for use by multiple projects, and to establish a supply chain in order to build and supply LCO₂carriers consistently within Japan, which would contribute towards the realization and improvement of economic efficiency of CCS value chains. These initiatives have led to the acquisitions of two AiPs in collaboration with three major Japanese shipping companies: “K” LINE, MOL and オンライン カジノ 比較.

The two LCO₂carriers that received AiP certifications are low-pressure type 50,オンライン カジノ 比較³-class and 23,オンライン カジノ 比較³-class vessels developed for long-distance ocean voyages. The AiP certifications assume the use of appropriate cargo tank material as a replacement for the nickel steel previously considered. Additionally, オンライン カジノ 比較 (PWHT)^*3, オンライン カジノ 比較 critical issues in establishing the cargo tank manufacturing, may be omitted by the Engineering Critical Assessment (ECA)^*4approach is included.

NYK believes that the establishment of CO₂transport technology by large vessels will greatly contribute to the realization of a carbon-neutral society. In its medium-term management plan"Sail Green, Drive Transformations 2026 — A Passion for Planetary Wellbeing. "announced in March 2023, NYK has positioned LCO₂transport as オンライン カジノ 比較 the new businesses in which it will actively invest and is promoting joint creation with partner companies in Japan and oversea.

*1: オンライン カジノ 比較 (AiP) indicates that the certification body has reviewed the basic design and approved it as satisfying the technical requirements and safety criteria. The assessment was conducted in accordance with the IGC Code^*2and the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) and Nippon Kaiji Kyokai (ClassNK) classification rules applicable to vessels transporting liquefied gas オンライン カジノ 比較.
*2: IGC Code (The International Code for the Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Liquefied Gases オンライン カジノ 比較) is an international regulation stipulating conditions to ensure the safety of vessels that transport liquefied gases (LCO₂, LNG, etc.) オンライン カジノ 比較.
*3: In オンライン カジノ 比較 (PWHT), structural materials are reheated to a set temperature after welding and held at that temperature for a specified amount of time. This process aims to lower residual stresses generated during welding and improve the quality of welding joints. PWHT is generally performed by placing structural products into a dedicated furnace. When the products are of large size, furnace size may cause bottlenecks in the manufacturing process.
*4: Engineering Critical Assessment (ECA) オンライン カジノ 比較 method for evaluating the safety of welded structural components. Using micro initial defects in the welding joints and the estimated stress history together with characteristics of the material, the ECA confirms that no major quality issues will occur during the product’s service life.
