- Singapore LNG Corp (SLNG) and Linde Gas Singapore have agreed to develop the carbon dioxide liquefaction and storage facility.
- The facility would use cold energy from SLNG liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal’s operations to liquefy carbon dioxide.
- It would then be stored in tanks on site before transported for end use, the companies said, adding it was a memorandum of understanding.
A Reuters news source states that Singapore LNG teams up with Linde Gas to study CO2 liquefaction facility.
Where is the facility located?
The facility, to be located on Jurong Island if deemed feasible, could become the first of its kind in Singapore.
SLNG owns and operates Singapore’s sole LNG terminal while Linde is the world’s largest industrial gas company.
Aim to release 2 million tonnes of carbon
Singapore is aiming to realise at least 2 million tonnes of carbon capture potential by 2030 as part of a broader effort to make its Jurong Island oil refinery hub more sustainable, the country’s Economic Development Board said last week.
