Carbon dioxide transport and sequestration marine vessel
11827317 · 2023-11-28 · ·

A marine vessel and method for carbon capture and sequestration are described. The marine vessel includes a buoyant hull, a cryogenic storage tank within the hull, and a gaseous carbon dioxide loading manifold. The marine vessel also includes a carbon dioxide liquefaction system in fluid communication with the cryogenic storage tank downstream of the carbon dioxide liquefaction system and with the gaseous carbon dioxide loading manifold upstream of the carbon dioxide liquefaction system. Finally, the marine vessel includes a carbon dioxide supercritical system in fluid communication with the cryogenic storage tank. In operation, the marine vessel moves between multiple locations, where gaseous carbon dioxide is onboarded, liquified and stored. Thereafter, the marine vessel transports the liquified carbon dioxide to a location adjacent an offshore geological reservoir. The liquefied carbon dioxide is then pressurized to produce supercritical carbon dioxide, which is then injected directly into the reservoir from the marine vessel.

Self-righting unmanned ship suitable for adverse sea conditions and working mode thereof
11440630 · 2022-09-13 · ·

Disclosed are a self-righting unmanned ship suitable for adverse sea conditions and a self-righting working mode thereof, belonging to the field of unmanned ship equipment and techniques. The unmanned ship comprises a main hull, a self-righting deck, an equipment and pipeline mast, a propeller, a radar, an air inlet and exhaust system, and a main engine system. Through the design of a watertight deck, the hull of the unmanned ship has a self-righting function, avoiding the possibility of the unmanned ship itself turning over, without installing additional self-righting equipment. Meanwhile, the internal structure and the self-righting working mode of the unmanned ship make it possible for the hull to automatically turn off the main engine and the air inlet and exhaust system when the heeling angle of the hull exceeds a certain angle, making the whole ship watertight.
