CO2 transportation by ship has a number of similarities to liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) transportation by ship. Carbon dioxide tankers are constructed using the same technology as existing liquefied gas carriers. Marine transportation system of CO2 includes temporary storage on land and a loading facility.
World’s largest food grade CO2 tankers were converted from three General Cargo vessels, each containing Ø7x50 meters and 470 tons weight of CO2 tanks that were fabricated with 45 mm thick P355LN2 low temp steel, 1800m3 capacity, design pressure 19 bars.
