CB&I will evaluate its liquid hydrogen storage tank design for ocean-going ships, and DSME will investigate and develop the ship’s general design to install the liquid hydrogen storage tank.
CB&I, McDermott’s storage business line, and Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co., Ltd. (DSME) have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) for a feasibility study of a large liquid hydrogen (LH2) carrier including an LH2 storage tank design.
The ability to ship large quantities of hydrogen across the ocean is an increasing need to help countries, like South Korea, achieve carbon reduction goals in a hydrogen economy.
For this study, CB&I will evaluate its LH2 storage tank design for ocean-going ships, and DSME will investigate and develop the ship’s general design to install the LH2 storage tank. The output of the feasibility study is expected to contribute to the future design of a large-scale LH2 carrier.
CB&I spheres can store LH2 at temperatures of minus 423 F, and the company says it is nearing completion of the world’s largest LH2 sphere in Cape Canaveral, Florida.
