MODEC and Samsung E&A launch offshore carbon capture project

Japan-based MODEC has initiated an offshore carbon capture project for its Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessels using Carbon Clean’s CycloneCC technology. The project involves a Front End Engineering and Design (FEED) contract with South Korea’s SAMSUNG E&A to optimize the technology for offshore conditions. This marks the first deployment of CycloneCC in an offshore setting, aiming to reduce CO2 emissions as part of MODEC’s Vision 2034 plan. The project is a collaboration between MODEC, SAMSUNG E&A, and UK-based Carbon Clean, focusing on decarbonizing offshore oil and gas operations.
