They play a pivotal role in the carbon dioxide capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) process, by transporting CO2 from its emission sources to storage sites or facilities for utilization. Demand for these vessels is expected to increase in the future, as CCUS is attracting attention worldwide as an effective means to achieve decarbonization.
