A Study on the Operational Plan and Acquisition Method for CO 2 Carrier by Retrofitting Existing Vessels and New Ship-Building

This paper presents the feasibility study on CO2 carrier for carbon dioxide marine geological storage. Conceptual design was carried out to acquire CO2 carriers by retrofitting existing vessels and new ship-building. Based on conceptual design, the acquisition cost of CO2 carriers was estimated. Finally, necessary expense and number of ships were estimated based on operational plans for the assumed scenario.
