Aker Carbon Capture, Altera Infrastructure and Höegh LNG to collaborate on full value-chain offerings for carbon capture and storage
Aker Carbon Capture, Altera Infrastructure and Höegh LNG have entered a non
-exclusive collaboration to explore a full value chain offering for carbon
capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS).
"Strategic partnerships with providers of CO2 processing, transport and storage
capabilities help to optimize the value chain to fast-track the deployment of
carbon capture utilization and storage. We are pleased to collaborate with
Altera Infrastructure and Höegh LNG with their maritime infrastructure expertise
in our efforts to accelerate the CCUS market," said Jon Christopher Knudsen,
Chief Commercial Officer of Aker Carbon Capture.
The parties will collaborate on offering Carbon Capture as a Service to
industrial emitters, enabling cost-effective implementation of the full value
chain needed to realize carbon capture, utilization, and storage projects for
industrial emitters.
Altera Infrastructure and Höegh LNG are global maritime and infrastructure
companies, providing services in the CCUS value chain including gaseous and
liquid CO2 gathering, purification, liquification, transportation and permanent
underground storage of CO2. Their Stella Maris CCS project covers large-scale
transport with shuttling of CO2 to an offshore site for injection and permanent
storage in a relevant subsea reservoir.
Ingvild Sæther, Group CEO of Altera said: "large scale maritime CCS is seen as a
cornerstone in Altera's future business and a concept we have been working on
for more than a decade, more recently with our partner, Höegh LNG. We believe
delivery of CCUS will be required to achieve a meaningful contribution to net
zero and we are delighted to be collaborating with Aker Carbon Capture as a
leader in carbon capture technology."
The collaboration is non-exclusive, allowing the parties to offer a full value
chain offering at locations where the combined technical concept of Aker Carbon
Capture's technology and the processing and shipping capabilities of Altera
Infrastructure and Höegh LNG is best suited, whilst leaving the parties with
flexibility to work with alternative solutions elsewhere.
"These collaborations represent key building blocks in our Carbon Capture as a
Service; Carbon Capture Made EasyTM offering, enabling source-to-storage
decarbonization at a pay per tonne captured CO2 model," said Knudsen.
Höegh LNG operates world-wide in a leading position as owner and operator of
floating LNG import terminals, FSRUs (Floating Storage and Regasification
Units). Höegh LNG is also one of the most experienced operators of LNG Carriers
(LNGCs). We always seek excellence in our operations in order to maximize value
for our clients, minimize impact on the environment and ensure welfare of our
employees. Thereby creating value for the group. Our vision is enabling the
transition to clean energy and the strategy is to drive and embrace
technological and commercial innovation.
Altera Infrastructure is a leading global energy infrastructure services group
primarily focused on the ownership and operation of critical infrastructure
assets in offshore oil regions of the North Sea, Brazil and the East Coast of
Canada. Altera Infrastructure's current fleet is comprised of FPSOs, shuttle
tankers, towing vessels and a unit for maintenance and safety. Through teamwork
and innovation, we are shaping the infrastructure of offshore energy, leading
the industry to a sustainable future.
