Executive SummaryExecutive SummaryExecutive SummaryExecutive Summary

The current study considers the transport of CO2 using shuttle ships. It follows

on from an earlier study completed by Chiyoda Corporation for the Global CCS

Institute. In this study, the CO2 is stored and transported at different conditions

and the injection site has been relocated meaning that different ocean conditions

needs to be considered. The viability of an unmanned injection buoy, instead of a

platform, was also considered in this study.

The impact of the changes to the CO2 conditions and the injection site on the tank

and ship design, the loading and unloading equipment and the flexible riser pipe

is studied in this report. An economic evaluation is also completed to assess the

cost of CO2 transport for a nominal injection volume of 1 million tonnes per year

with the transport distance ranging from 200 to 1,600 km. The shuttle ship’s

capacity is approximately 3,000 tonnes CO2 and to reach the nominal injection

volume requires a shuttle ship to inject its cargo on a daily basis.

The change in CO2 conditions requires a change in the design and manufacturing

of the ship storage tank. Two manufacturing options are available, either to

subject the tank to a heat treatment process after manufacturing or to construct

the tank from a nickel alloy steel. The heat treatment of a tank of this size is

impractical so it was decided to use a nickel alloy steel as the construction

material. These tanks were the same size as in Phase-1 so the design of the ship

did not have to be changed.

The change of injection site resulted in different ocean currents, wave heights

and water temperature. A dynamic positioning system simulation was carried out

to determine whether the thrusters and propellers from the ship would be

sufficient to maintain its position during injection. The simulation allowed for the

change in ocean conditions and considered the wave heights, periods, currents,

wind speed, etc. It was found that the use of 2*1,150 kW side thrusters and a

3,000 kW propeller was sufficient to maintain the ship within a 20 m distance

from its initial injection position.

A more detailed study of the equipment on board the ship, the injection riser and

the pickup method was also completed. A loading arm using a flexible swivel joint

was considered appropriate due to its successful operation in other liquefied gas

processes.

The CO2 needs to be heated prior to injection. This can be done using seawater

but additional energy was required in this case because the CO2 is colder and

because the seawater at the new injection site is also colder. It was determined

that a waste heat boiler could be installed to use the waste heat from the diesel

generator’s exhaust gases and that this, combined with the heating using the

seawater, was sufficient to heat the CO2 to the injection temperature.

The cable design was the same as in Phase-1 but the tension and bending radius

of the cable were re-examined to account for the new ocean conditions. A separate

fatigue analysis was completed that showed that the fatigue life reduces from

36.2 years down to 17.5 years when the ocean depth reduces from 500m down to

100m.

The pick-up procedure for the flexible riser pipe was also described.

An economic evaluation was completed to assess the costs of CO2 transport via

shipping. These results are shown in Table ES-2. The average system cost for

transport ranges from 1.93 to 5.24 ¥/kg CO2 for transport distances ranging from

200 to 1,600 km, respectively.

1. 1. 1. 1. IntroductionIntroductionIntroductionIntroduction

There is not a lot of work dedicated to the transport of CO2 via ships. This is in part because there is a certain level of understanding and familiarity with pipeline transport of CO2 with, dedicated pipelines in North America as part of the infrastructure for Enhanced Oil Recovery. Even in Europe, building on the experience of the existing gas and oil pipeline networks is considered to be the way forward to transport CO2. Hence, ship-based CO2 transportation has not been a major consideration for many CCS and CCUS projects in these regions.

However, if an emitter industry identifies that the potential storage capacity for CO2 in the neighboring area is unsuitable then transportation of CO2 by ship provides an opportunity to access distant storage sites. Countries dependent on overseas resources are familiar with transporting bulk raw materials and fossil fuels by ships, and transportation of CO2 by ocean-going vessels provides an attractive and viable alternative to overcome the limitations imposed by the “sink-source matching condition” in carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS).

Ship-based CCS provides flexibility in changing capture sites, storage sites and the transportation routes for CCS. The flexible selection of project components, such as time, place and size in a CCS chain, can assist in bringing about a smooth introduction of CCS scheme to a society.

The cost of transportation of CO2 by ship has so far only been examined in generic comparisons with pipeline transportation under the “sink-source matching” conditions. The effect of scale and flexibility on ship-based CCS have not yet been carefully investigated and considered in detail.

In the previous Phase-1 study of “Preliminary Feasibility Study on CO2 Carrier for Ship-based CCS”, a CO2 shuttle ship equipped with injection facilities was proposed. The study showed that the proposed shuttle transport using a medium-sized vessel has the merit of flexibility in changing the capture site, the transport route and storage site in a CCS project.

Shipping of liquified gases is a well-practiced technology and is economically feasible. However, the novel configuration of a CO2 shipping system requires that further study is needed to examine the parameters that effect the specific design of the proposed system.

The proposed ship transportation of CO2 has the key component as illustrated in Figure 1-1. The system features:

• A cargo tank for storing liquid CO2,

The figure also illustrates that shuttle transportation enables CCS from multiple capture sites to be matched to multiple storage sites. Merits of shuttle transportation include:

• Relaxation of the "single source vs. single sink matching" requirement, • Unmanned offshore facilities which might reduce the project cost, • Elimination of the offshore buffer storage tanks, and • Flexibility in changing the CCS project plan.

The objectives of the study are to examine the technical and economic feasibility of a CO2 shuttle tanker equipped with injection facilities combined with an unmanned offshore injection facility.

The present study follows up from the “Preliminary Feasibility Study on CO2 Carrier for Ship-based CCS (Phase-1)” conducted by the University of Tokyo and Chiyoda Corporation (CHIYODA). This Phase-2 study is based on the proposed design and cost analysis from the Phase-1 report but considers the impact of the following scope changes:

• changing the liquid CO2 cargo condition from -10OC and 2.65MPa to -20OC and 1.97MPa, because the conventional condition of liquid CO2 treatment in industries is -20 OC and 1.97MPa,

• rougher sea conditions found in the northern sea area where the Japanese national CCS demonstration project is being proposed instead of the site selected for the Phase 1 study,

• the effect of the sea water temperature on the on-board heating requirements of the CO2,

• the use of an unmanned buoy with a flexible riser and the associated equipment required on board,

• the detailed handling procedure to pick-up, connect and operate the flexible riser pipe and its implications to the general arrangement of the vessel's operation deck,

• the availability of the loading arms onshore for the proposed transport system,

• the durability of the flexible riser, and • onboard heating of the CO2 to prevent the avoidance of the hydrate

formation in the flexible riser.

An economic evaluation is carried out on the transport and injection of the CO2 using these shipping specifications.

Figure.1-2 illustrates the scope of the work and the design bases and conditions are shown in Table 1-1.

1.1.1.1.1111.2.2.2.2 Assumptions Assumptions Assumptions Assumptions

The following assumptions were made in this study: • Shuttle-type transportation is to be used. • An un-manned offshore facility is to be installed to avoid the expected large

expense associated with the construction and operation of a manned offshore platform.

The following items are examined in the Phase-2 study; some items are changed from those in the Phase-1 study.

1) Cargo tank. The size of shuttle ship remains the same as in the Phase-1 study. A volume of 3000m3 of liquid CO2 is assumed for the shuttle ship, which is equipped with two cargo tanks, each holding approximately 1500m3. The case of CO2 transported in liquid phase under the conventional industrial conditions at -20°C and 1.97MPa is examined in contrast to the conditions of Phase 1.

2) Injection pump. The CO2 injection rate remains as the same in the Phase-1 study, to be 3000m3 over a 22h period. This injection rate equals 1 million tonnes per year which is used as an international standard. The liquid CO2 is to be pressurized from the cargo tank pressure of 1.97MPa to 10MPa required for injection.

Page 6

3) Heater. Prior to injection, the liquid CO2 needs to be heated from -20°C to 5°C. A temperature of 5°C is to be used as a safe value to prevent the formation of hydrates. After being heated, the CO2 is to be injected through a flexible riser pipe into the injection wells on the seafloor.

In the Phase-1 study, we adopted a 500 m water depth as a representative depth for examination. In addition, we selected Site M in southern Japan where the sea condition is relatively moderate.

For Phase-2, the sea area offshore Sakata, Yamagata Prefecture is selected, which is where a national CCS project, the RITE’ Japanese CO2 underground storage R&D sponsored by METI (2000 – 2007), is proposed.

This site is within Japanese EEZ sea area where the seawater temperatures are lower and the sea/weather conditions are more severe compared to Phase-1. This impacts on the heating of the CO2 and dynamic positioning system of the ship to maintain it in a stable position during injection operations. The effect of the ocean conditions also needs to be considered in the design of the flexible riser.

Details of the site and an assessment of the storage potential of the site is provided in Volume-2 of this report titled “Storage Site Identification beyond the Japanese Continental Shelf.”

In this chapter, the effects of the ship design due to changes between the Phase-1 and Phase-2 assumptions are studied. These changes include the change in storage conditions in the ships tanks of the CO2 and also the changes in the ocean and weather conditions to account for selecting an alternate offshore site in the Northeast of Japan.

The ship was designed in Phase-1 with the general characteristics and general arrangement plan shown in Table 2-2 and Figure 2-1 respectively. In Phase-2, the design temperature of liquid CO2 is changed from -10°C to -20°C and this impacted on the design of the cargo tanks.

Apart from cargo tanks, the following parts of the ship are modified;

1) Crane for riser pipe pickup. An arch type crane is adopted at the middle of the ship instead of a forward pick up crane. Since this crane is associated with the operation of the flexible riser, it is further described in Chapter 3.

2) Accommodation. A large gas heater is required for the injection system, requiring increased accommodation to install this heater. The heater is also described in Chapter 3.

3) Dynamic Positioning System. The DPS system is evaluated against its capacity to maintain the ship in a stable location under more severe sea and weather conditions compared to the Phase-1 study. This is described later in this chapter.

All other ship particulars, including gas handling, were the same as in Phase-1.

The tank will be constructed as a bi-lobe tank with heads at both ends, the outline being of torispherical shape, as illustrated in Figure 2-2.

Figure 2-2: Shape of liquid CO2 tank.

The plate thickness of the cargo tank can be calculated by using standard equations for pressure vessels, which are authorized by ASME, JIS and so on. The plate thickness is shown in Table 2-4 for both Phase-1 and Phase-2 conditions. This shows the influence of the liquid pressure, which is related to cargo temperature, on the required thickness of the cargo tank. It was assumed that the minimum tensile strength at room temperature was 720.0N/mm2 and that the minimum yield strength at room temperature was 620.0 N/mm2.

2222....2.12.12.12.1 Heat treatment of cargo tankHeat treatment of cargo tankHeat treatment of cargo tankHeat treatment of cargo tank

The welds of pressure vessels need to undergo heat treatment after manufacturing the pressure vessel. Post-welding heat treatment is required for relieving stress at all fittings, such as flanges, nozzles and reinforcement plates that have been welded in place. The guidelines require that heat treatment is required when the plate thickness is over 40 mm. Additionally, the gas code requires that post-welding heat treatment is to be performed for carbon and carbon manganese steel tanks after welding if the design temperature is below -10°C.

Considering the rule requirements above, the design temperature of above -10°C and a plate thickness less than 40mm have advantages in avoiding the need for post heat treatment if carbon steel or carbon manganese steels is used to construct the tank. However, if the design temperature is lower than -10°C, alternate materials such as 9% Ni steel, 5% Ni steel or aluminium alloy 5083-0 can be used, for which heat treatment is not required.

But the price of 9% Ni steel is more than 6 times that of carbon steel. Although the total price of tank using 9% Ni steel becomes more than 4 times compared to that made of carbon steel, we adopted the carbon steel tank in the economic analysis considering the additional cost of heat treatment.

The chosen shape of the tank is of Bi-lobe type. This shape is more complicated to fabricate compared to cylindrical tanks, but has advantages in terms of ship stability because it provides a lower center of gravity of the tank, good occupation percentage in the ship’s hold and smaller gross tonnage of the ship. The fabrication cost is also dependent on whether heat treatment is required. If the

Page 26: FINAL REPORT Preliminary Feasibility Study on CO 2 Carrier ... · with the transport distance ranging from 200 to 1,600 km. The shuttle ship’s capacity is approximately 3,000 tonnes

Page 13

size of the cargo tank is small enough for heat treatment in a heating furnace then design temperatures below -10°C may be preferable from a total cost point of view. However, if the size of cargo tank exceeds the size of available heating furnace a design temperature above -10°C will be required. To avoid heat treatment problems, Ni steel can be used but this steel is more expensive compared to carbon steel.

We believe the heat treatment facilities might be available and there is no barriers to manufacture the tanks.

2.2.2.2.3333 Dynamic Positioning System Dynamic Positioning System Dynamic Positioning System Dynamic Positioning System

A simulation study was conducted to assess whether the Dynamic Positioning System (DPS) of the ship was sufficient to maintain the ship within a 20m horizontal movement range during injection.

The ship is equipped with two side thrusters and an azimuth propeller as described in Table 2-5 and shown in Figure 2-3. The ocean conditions are shown in Table 2-6. This indicates that the current speed of 1.94 knots in the Phase-2 study is higher than the current speed of 1.46 knots as used in the Phase-1 study. This is the major change since the wind speed and wave heights are kept the same.

VC = 1.0 m/s μC = 90 deg UW = 15.0 m/s μW = 135 deg UW = 15.0 m/s μW = 180 deg H1/3 = 3.0 m T1/3 = 9, 13, 17 s μ = 180 deg μ Y

The methodology used in the DPS simulation study is illustrated in Figure 2-4. Firstly, the wind drag force, wave drift force and hydrodynamic manoeuvring are obtained by computation and laboratory testings. These forces are then applied to the ship. A thruster capacity is estimated and the manoeuvring of the ship is calculated using motion time series. The position of the ship is compared to the DPS requirement of horizontal movement within 20 m. If this requirement is met, no further thruster capacity is added. On the other hand, if the requirement is not met, additional thruster capacity is added and the manoeuvre motion calculations

The statistical simulation results are shown in Table 2-8 and Table 2-9. These results show the maximum, minimum and average values of the ships movement and the associated output from the thrusters and propellers for the time interval between 300 and 1000 seconds. These results show that the maximum movement of the ship in all six cases is within the horizontal movement criteria.

A time series of the simulation results for Case06 is shown in Figure 2-5. This shows the time series computation results of turn angle of the ship, front-back movement, side-to-side movement, revolution, thrust force of propeller, etc.

The charts of ship movement at every 100 s for 6 cases are shown in Appendix A, where the initial position of the ship is shown by the red outline and the alternate positions over time show the effectiveness of the DPS to counteract the external forces on the ship.

The statistical results of the DPS simulation studies show that:

• an average ship turn angle is around 50°,

• the maximum front-back movement is 17.4 m, and

• the maximum side-to-side movement is 15.6 m.

The simulation showed that the 2 x 1,150kW sets for the side thruster and 3,000

kW for the azimuth propeller is sufficient to maintain the ship within a 20 m

limit for the sea and weather conditions of Phase-2.

3. 3. 3. 3. Loading System, Loading System, Loading System, Loading System, Ship Equipment and Injection MethodShip Equipment and Injection MethodShip Equipment and Injection MethodShip Equipment and Injection Method

Design conditions for handling liquid CO2 onboard and onshore are changed

from -10°C, 2.65MPa (in Phase-1) to -20oC, 1.97MPa (in Phase-2). When the

pressure of liquid CO2 becomes lower, larger CO2 tanks onshore are available

and the total cost of CO2 tanks accordingly becomes cheaper than those found in

the Phase-1 study. However, the specification of the other major equipment,

such as CO2 loading pumps, CO2 tank, boil off gas coolers and loading arms and

so forth are the same as those in the Phase-1 study.

Due to the change in the temperature of liquid CO2 and the injection site, the

capacity of the onboard heater should be increased. In the Phase-1 condition at

the Southwest sea in Japan, the available seawater has enough heat content to

heat up liquid CO2, but under the Phase-2 conditions at the Northeast sea in

Japan, the emission gas from diesel generation and fuel combustion is

additionally needed as heat sources.

For the flexible riser pipe operation, the Phase-1 study only revealed the

conceptual feasibility. We examined detailed onboard operation in the Phase-2

study.

Fatigue life of the flexible riser pipe at a 500m water depth condition (Phase-1)

was 36.2 year. At a 100-m water depth condition, the fatigue life decreases to

half (17.5year). It was pointed out that a bend stiffener and/or a free coupling of

the pipe to the ship should be examined to attain a longer fatigue life.

This chapter shows the followings:

• Design of the loading system of liquefied CO2 and available loading arms,

• Design of the offshore liquefied CO2 delivery/injection facilities, on-board

pump and heating,

• Design of the flexible riser pipe and the pickup operation, and

• Comparison of the Phase-1 and Phase-2 results.

The CO2 loading system is almost the same as in the Phase-1 study, except for

the change in temperature and pressure of CO2. The CO2 loading system is

shown in Figure 3-1. CO2 captured from power plants, chemical plants, etc. is

fed to the CO2 compression & liquefier facility, where CO2 is compressed up to

1.97MPa, dehydrated, liquefied at -20ºC, and then stored in the CO2 tank. When

a CO2 shuttle tanker arrives at the berth, CO2 is pumped from the tank and

loaded through the loading arm installed at the berth into the CO2 cargo tanks

on the tanker stored at 1.97MPa and -20ºC. The CO2 is then transported by the

CO2 shuttle tanker to the injection point off the Japanese coast.

Figure 3-1: CO2 Loading System.

The scope of the proposed CO2 transportation system includes:

• Loading facilities: CO2 tank, CO2 loading pump, CO2 tank, Boil Off Gas

cooler, loading arm and related equipment.

• The CO2 compression & liquefier facilities, berth, CO2 capture facilities

and CO2 gathering pipelines are out of scope. The information about the

compressions and liquefier facilities is provided for reference.

The study assumes the following loading capacity metrics:

• CO2 nominal loading capacity of 1 million tons per year (or 3,000 tons per

day for 334 days per year)

• Annual operation days: 334 day (operation factor of 91.5%)

Maintenance will be completed on individual equipment when not in use. Hence,

there is no need to provide an additional scheduled shut-down period to comply

with maintenance requirement according to Japanese regulation.

The major equipment required includes:

1) CO2 tanks: operating condition -20ºC, 1.97MPa

[430m3 tank x 14 sets, total capacity of 6,000 tons; 2 days’ stock]

2) CO2 loading pump: capacity of 250 ton/hr, 2 sets + 1 standby

3) CO2 tank boil off gas cooler: utilizes cooling properties of compressed CO2

4) Loading arm: 500 ton/hr, 1 set

The estimated area for the loading facility is 55 m wide by 75 m long for an area

of 4,125m2.

The estimated construction cost is 3,000 million Japanese yen or approximately

37.0 million AUD1.

Two operators will be required for the loading facility, consisting of 0.5 operators

per team over 4 teams across 3 shifts.

The electricity consumed by the loading facility is estimated at

309,000kWh/year, which will produce 173 tons of CO2 per year2.

such as crude oil, petroleum products (including LPG) or petrochemical products

use swivel-type loading/un-loading arms that consist of pipes and rotating free

(swivel) joints.

As shown in Figure 3-2, a swivel-type loading/un-loading arm has a simple

structure that is a combination of a crane, pipes and swivel joints. It has been

used more than 50 years and is well-established in terms of technology and cost.

It has over 30 years of track record from being applied to LPG and LNG that are

refrigerated liquids (liquefied gases).

Table 3-1:. Comparison of typical liquefied gas transportation by swivel joint

type loading/un-loading.

A swivel type loading arm is also acceptable for CO2 loading in terms of safety

considerations that take into account the temperature and pressure levels of the

CO2.

Although a flexible pipe – similar to the CO2 injection riser - could be used as a

substitute of a swivel joint, it is unfavorable as a transfer loading arm between a

pier and a moored tanker due to the following reasons:

• the high price of the flexible pipe,

• the high price of the loading dock and/or ship based crane structures

required to tolerate the maximum curvature of a pipe, and

• numerous elements, such as the strength and flexibility of flexible pipe,

the structure of crane, operation system and etc. to be developed.

3.2.1 Heating of CO3.2.1 Heating of CO3.2.1 Heating of CO3.2.1 Heating of CO2222

The CO2 needs to be heated from the storage conditions of -20°C on ship to 5°C

prior to injecting to prevent the formation of hydrates in the injection riser and

the reservoir.

There are three heat sources that are available onboard the ship to heat the

CO2.

1) Sea water is the most convenient heat source and is the first priority for

utilization. However, in order to avoid the seawater freezing in a heat

exchanger it is difficult to use seawater that is 6°C or less. A

specially-structured heat exchanger can be used with antifreeze and this

allows seawater temperatures of approximately 3°C to be used to heat the

CO2.

2) Heat recovery from the exhaust gas of the diesel generator is another heat

source available on board and is the second priority for utilization. The

heat is recovered from the exhaust gases in a water heater and this water

is then used to heat the CO2 liquid. The assumed diesel generator

operation conditions indicates that the maximum usage of heat recovery

from the exhaust gases is 2.5GJ/hr.

3) Additional fuel can also be burned to provide additional heat although

this is the last choice for utilization. To utilize this heat source, a hot

water boiler needs to be installed and the heated water is used to heat the

liquid CO2 and is then recycled. If one-third of the required heat input is

provided by this method, the additional annual cost is estimated to be 180

million Yen3. Therefore, this method should be used only when no other

choices are available.

Page 39

The type of heat resources described above and how they are combined to

provide the heat required needs to be examined based on the temperature of the

seawater available.

If the lowest seawater temperature is high, such as in the Phase-1 study (i.e.

19 °C), CO2 could be heated sufficiently using only sea water. However, the

average seawater temperature in the Phase-2 study is much lower at 8°C so the

CO2 needs to be heated using a combination of the heat utilization methods

described above.

A combination of the sea water and exhaust gas from the diesel generation was

selected in the present study. First, CO2 is heated from -20°C to -4°C by a

specially-structured heat exchanger (open rack heater) where the heat is

recovered from seawater with the temperature range between 8 to 3 °C

Following this, the CO2 is heated to 5 °C using water heated by the exhaust

gases of the diesel generator.

The process for compressing and heating the CO2 up to injection conditions is

shown in Figure 3-3.

The loading arm of CO2 shuttle tanker is connected to the CO2 injection riser at

the injection point. The CO2 stored in the two cargo tanks is pressurized to the

injection pressure (10MPa) by the CO2 injection pump. The CO2 is then heated to

the injection temperature (5ºC) as described above.

The pressurized and heated CO2 is sent through the CO2 injection riser to the

wellhead equipment installed on the seabed at the injection point. The CO2 is

then injected into the underground formations at the scheduled injection rate

set for individual wells with the injection rate controlled by a flow control valve

(electrically controlled) installed at the wellhead. Data signals measuring the

flow rate are sent from the wellhead to the injection control system on the CO2

shuttle tanker to monitor and control the injection conditions.

Injection operation data and the conditions of the injection wells are

Wave heights above 3 m were not included in the study as it was assumed that

the injection operation could not proceed under those conditions.

2) Procedure

The bending fatigue property (S-N curve) of the riser was derived from FEC

in-house data (OTC6876) as follows.

• Log(N)=A-B・Log(⊿k)

• Where N is failure number

• ⊿k is theCurvature change of riser top(1/m)

⊿k=kmax-kmin k:Curvature • A is a coefficient from S-N curve (4.0)

• B is a coefficient from S-N curve (1.912)

The fatigue analysis was carried out as shown in the flow diagram in Figure

3-15.

3) Results

The results of fatigue analysis are shown in Table 3-9. These results only show

the analysis of the flexible riser pipe when attached to the ship and does not

consider possible failure events in the coupling. The estimated frequency of

flexible riser pipe damage is 0.08562 per year. The fatigue life (P) was calculated

as follow.

= 17.5 year

Where k is the operation rate, which is 2/3 as the injection riser is used 16 hours

per day for CO2 injection. (k = 16hr/24hr = 2/3)

4) Conclusions

Fatigue life of the flexible riser pipe at a 500-m water depth condition (Phase-1)

was 36.2 year. At a 100-m water depth condition, the fatigue life decreases to

half (17.5 year) because of large curvature change in the pipe. A bend stiffener

and/or a free coupling of the pipe to the ship should be examined to attain a

longer fatigue life.

The previous study on the LCO2 injection system at an ocean injection site

concluded that the pickup buoy system had the following advantages over a

stationary surface structure:

• no buoy system necessary for ship mooring,

• less stringent ship handling requirements than mooring at stationary

surface structures, especially in rougher sea conditions, and

• the flexible riser pipe remains on the seabed in rough seas.

The specification for the flexible riser pipe were calculated in the previous

section. This section outlines the shipboard equipment required and the process

for the flexible riser pickup operation.

3.3.3.3.4444....1111 Components of the pickup buoy systemComponents of the pickup buoy systemComponents of the pickup buoy systemComponents of the pickup buoy system

The design conditions for the flexible riser pipe pickup system, detailed in Table

3-10, can be explained as follows:

• the buoy pickup operation can be carried out in sea conditions up to a

significant wave height (H1/3) of 2.5 to 3.0 m, according to a survey of ship

operators,

• the pickup buoy and float must be stable in heavy weather conditions and

have no kinetic influence on the flexible pipe on the seabed,

• the specification of the pickup wire rope is determined by the pickup

conditions listed in Table 3-10, and

• the specifications of the messenger line, sinker, and pickup float are

determined by the storm conditions listed in Table 3-10.

Table 3-10: Design conditions of the flexible riser pipe pickup operation.

The components of the pickup buoy system are shown in Figure 3-16. These

components are:

• a pickup float and pickup bouy so that the ship can locate the injection

site,

• a messenger line that connects the float to a sinker at the seabed,

• a sinker for keeping the pickup wire rope on the seabed,

• a pick up wire rope of sufficient strength to lift up the flexible riser pipe,

and

• the flexible rise pipe, which is used to inject the CO2 from the ship into the

reservoir.

The pickup buoy is picked up first, followed by the pickup float, which is

connected to the flexible riser pipe through the messenger line and the pickup

wire rope. The junction of the messenger line and the pickup wire rope is kept on

the seabed, using an attached sinker, except during CO2 delivery. This system

isolates the flexible riser pipe from any pickup float motions caused by waves.

The pickup float, with an attached light, serves as a dan buoy (marker) for the

LCO2 carrier ship.

The length of the pickup wire rope is 750 m, 1.5 times the water depth. The 550

Page 59

m (1.1 times the water depth) messenger line is designed with sufficient

mechanical strength to draw both the sinker and the pickup wire rope up to the

LCO2 carrier. The pickup float is designed with 10 kN buoyancy to sustain the

combined weight of the messenger line and the buoy light and radar reflector.

The LCO2 carrier requires the following equipment for the riser pickup

operation:

• a coupling valve to connect the flexible riser pipe to the ship,

• a crane to hoist the pickup float onto the ship,

• winches to reel in the messenger line and the pickup wire rope, and

• an A-frame for deployment and recovery of the float and pickup wire.

This shipboard equipment for the flexible riser pipe pickup operation is shown

in Figure 3-17.

1) Pickup buoy

When the LCO2 carrier ship arrives at the ocean injection site, the ship

approaches the pickup buoy parallel to the pickup-buoy/pickup-float line. A hook

bar is thrown toward the floating synthetic rope by a compressed air gun and

the pickup buoy is hoisted on board the ship by retrieving the hook bar. The

pickup buoy is made of plastic with a few hundred millimeters diameter. Figure

3-18 illustrates the pickup buoy picking up operation.

2) Floating synthetic rope

The floating synthetic rope connects the pickup buoy to the messenger line at

the rope joint. The rope joint is hoisted up to the deck by rolling up the floating

synthetic rope using a shipboard equipped capstan. The floating synthetic rope

requires the tensile strength more than 8 kN to pull up the messenger line

which is 550 m in length. The floating synthetic rope rolling up operation is

shown in Figure 3-19.

The pickup float is designed with 10 kN buoyancy to sustain the combined

weight of the messenger line and the buoy light and radar reflector. The pickup

float is filled with urethane form to obtain enough buoyancy and its weight

becomes hundreds of kilogram or nearly 1 ton if made of FRP or SUS (steel

special use stainless) thin sheet, respectively. The pickup float is pulled up onto

3) Messenger line, pickup wire rope, and flexible riser pipe

The messenger line, 550 m in length connected to the pickup wire rope via a

1-ton sinker, is reeled in by the winch. The sinker is pulled up onto the ship

using the A-frame. The pickup wire rope is then reeled in, which lifts the flexible

riser pipe to the ship. Finally the flexible riser pipe is connected to the coupling

valve. The shipboard equipment, the sinker pickup operation, and details of the

A-frame and the coupling operation are shown in Figure 3-20 and Figure 3-21,

respectively.

Further work is required for the pickup operation, including:

• Development of a remotely-actuated quick-release coupling valve of inner

diameter 160 mm that can withstand an LCO2 pressure of up to 10 MPa,

• Design of a quick-release connector for the umbilical cable, which is

bundled with the flexible riser pipe, to supply electricity from the ship to

both the seabed manifold valve and the communication buoy, and

• Development of a slide-movable work floor that can project ocean-ward

from the deck when needed for maintenance/inspection of the flexible

riser pipe head.

The scope of the proposed CO2 transportation system was previously described

in Section 2. This includes:

• Onshore plant: loading section (CO2 tank, CO2 loading pump, loading arm

and related equipments),

• CO2 shuttle tanker including on-board CO2 injection pump, sea water

pump, CO2 heater, Injection control system and riser winch, and

• Offshore facilities: CO2 injection riser and buoy.

The followings are out of scope for the economic analysis:

• CO2 capture facilities,

• CO2 gathering pipelines,

• CO2 compression & liquefier facility (the information of the facility is

reported as references),

• Berth onshore,

• CO2 well head equipment,

• Pipelines between well head equipment and injection well, and

• CO2 injection wells.

Page 68: FINAL REPORT Preliminary Feasibility Study on CO 2 Carrier ... · with the transport distance ranging from 200 to 1,600 km. The shuttle ship’s capacity is approximately 3,000 tonnes

Page 67

The following assumptions are made for the economic analysis:

• Nominal injection capacity of 1,000,000 tons/year

• Operation days per year: 334

• Transport capacity per CO2 shuttle tanker (effective volume) of

2,916 m3 (or 3,003 tons)

• Actual injection capacity of 1,003,121 tons/year

• The well head depth is at 500 m below the ocean surface.

• Total system life of 30 years from the start of injection.

• Expected life of facilities as follows;

- Onshore plant: 30 years

- CO2 shuttle tanker: 15 years, CO2 shuttle tanker will be replaced

with new tankers after 15 years of service.

- Offshore facilities: 30 years

• Standby period for CO2 shuttle tanker: 25% of the period number for

Case-1 and Case-2, 1 (one) ship for Case-3.

The Net injection capacity is calculated as the actual injection minus the

discharged emissions arising from the electricity use at the onshore facility and

the fuel consumption onboard during shuttle and injection operations. The

Japanese Ministry of Environment indices are used:

• Electricity: 0.561 kg-CO2/kWh

• Fuel oil: 2.71 kg-CO2/kL-oil

The total transport system cost is the sum of three separate cost items:

• Capital costs,

• Management costs and

• Operating costs.

Table 4-5: Capital cost of Case-3.

The total annual payment is indicated as follows.

yS ( 1 . 0+y ) n P = ( 1 . 0+y ) n― 1 . 0

The annual payment of capital cost is indicated S/n.

The annual interest payable, R, on capital expenses is indicated using:

R = P ― S / n

Where S is the loan amount (capital cost), n is the term of the loan in years and y

is the interest rate. The interest rate is taken to be 1.25% which is the Japanese

long term prime rate on September 2012. For a loan period of 10 years and the

Japanese long term prime interest rate, the above equation simplifies to:

R = 0.700% * S

For a facility with an expected life of 30 years, the annual interest payable is as

Page 71: FINAL REPORT Preliminary Feasibility Study on CO 2 Carrier ... · with the transport distance ranging from 200 to 1,600 km. The shuttle ship’s capacity is approximately 3,000 tonnes

Page 70

follows:

• 0.700% * S for the first 10 years,

• Nil for years 11 to 30.

The average over the life of the system is 0.233 %* S.

For a facility with an expected life of 15 years, the annual interest payable is as

follows:

• 0.700% * S for the first 10 years and during years 16 to 25,

• Nil for years 11 to 15 and 26 to 30.

The average over the life of the system is 0.467% * S.

The capital will be paid off over a period of 10 years and it is assumed that there

will be no salvage value associated with the facilities after 10 years. The

depreciation cost, D, is estimated as:

� =(������ �� � − ������ ����)

������������ ������

For a facility with an expected life of 30 years, the depreciation costs is as

follows:

• First 10 years: 10% *S

• Years 11 to 30: nil

For a facility with an expected life of 15 years, the depreciation cost is as follows:

• First 10 years and years 16 to 25: 10%* S,

• Years 11 to 15 and 26 to 30: nil.

Working capital is not taken into account in these calculations.

The capital payments for the facilities are shown in Table 4-6. These payments

are for capital assets only and do not include the interest charges on the capital,

which are considered in a later section.

o Shuttle CO2 Tanker at 100% of operators’ wages, and

o Injection at 100% of operators’ wages.

4.3.3 Operating Cost4.3.3 Operating Cost4.3.3 Operating Cost4.3.3 Operating Cost

The operating costs are labour and the use of utilities. Labour wages are

estimated as:

• Operators for onshore Plants are ¥8,000,000 per year based on Japanese

operators’ average wages.

Page 73: FINAL REPORT Preliminary Feasibility Study on CO 2 Carrier ... · with the transport distance ranging from 200 to 1,600 km. The shuttle ship’s capacity is approximately 3,000 tonnes

Page 72

• Crew for CO2 shuttle tanker are ¥9,000,000 per year based on Japanese

crews’ average wages making allowances for the ships’ captain.

• Crew for CO2 Injection at ¥8,000,000 per year, the same as operators’

wages for onshore plants.

Utilities are costed at the following rates

• Electric power of onshore plants: ¥10/kWh based on Japanese general

chemical plants.

• Cooling water of onshore plants: ¥8.0/ton based on Japanesegeneral

chemical plants.

• Treatment cost of waste water from onshore plants: ¥80/ton based on

Japanese general chemical plants.

• Fuel oil cost of CO2 shuttle tanker engine: ¥70,300/kL based on Japanese

market average price from Oct., 2011 to Sept., 2012.

4444.4 .4 .4 .4 Transport system Transport system Transport system Transport system costcostcostcost

The total transport system cost is the sum of the capital costs, the management

costs and the operating costs. This requires a better understanding of the

number of operators and crew required as well as an estimate of the amount of

utilities required.

The onshore plant will require 2 operators.

Each ship requires two team consisting of 3 crew members each. The total

number of crew per ship is 6. Each ship also requires two teams for injection

consisting of 3 crew members each. So 6 crew members are also required for

each ship for the injection of CO2.

The onshore CO2 loading plants facilities uses 309,000 kWh per year.

(1) The CO2 shuttle tanker uses fuel oil to generate electricity on board and

during the different stages of loading, shuttle and injection as shown in

Table 4-7 below.

Page 73

Table 4-7: Consumption of fuel oil of shuttle tanker.

Note: FO is fuel oil.

CO2 is produced from the utilization of electricity at the onshore facilities and

also from the combustion of fuel oil on board the ship. The emissions of CO2 per

annum are shown in Table 4-8. These total volume injected needs to be adjusted

for the CO2 discharges so that a cost per tonne of CO2 stored can be calculated.

A sensitivity analysis was completed to compare the total transport system costs.

The variables assessed include the distance of transport, the size of the project

and the effect of transport conditions.

4.4.4.4.5555.1 .1 .1 .1 Effect of DistanceEffect of DistanceEffect of DistanceEffect of Distance

The effect of transport distance on the total transport system cost is shown in

Figure 4-4. This indicates that the cost increases linearly with distance.

4.4.4.4.5555.2.2.2.2 Effect of project sizeEffect of project sizeEffect of project sizeEffect of project size

This study is premised on a nominal annual injection capacity of 1 million

tonnes of CO2. The shuttle-ship transportation volume of 3,000 tons per ship is

based on a daily injection to achieve the nominal annual injection capacity.

There are two approaches to increase the size of the project. The first approach

is to increase the size of the tanks on the shuttle ships. This approach is beyond

the scope of the current project as it would require redesign of the shuttle-ship.

A second approach is to increase the number of shuttle ships so that more than

one injection per day can be achieved.

In this case, the total transport system cost changes as illustrated in Figure 4-5.

The cyclic nature reflects that the cost decreases as the capacity of the shuttle

ships is used up, but then increases at certain points where additional ships are

required. Overall, the cost decreases as more CO2 is transported and injected.

Table 4-16: Effect of different shipping conditions for Case-2.

This data shows that the cost increases when the CO2 is transported at a higher

pressure and temperature but that the cost decreases when warmer seawater is

available. Hence transporting CO2 at a pressure of 1.97 MPa and temperature of

-20°C is more economical than transporting CO2 at a pressure of 2.65 MPa and a

temperature of -10°C.

In this section of the report, the results from the Phase 1 and Phase 2 studies

are compared to identify the changes in cost due to the different transport

conditions and ocean conditions.

1) A total of 3 cases were studied in Phase 2 but only 2 cases were studied in

Phase 1. Case-3 was recalculated in the Phase-1 conditions.

2) The basis for the economic analysis are shown in Table 4-17. The actual

injection capacity in the Phase-2 study was slightly larger than in the

Phase-1 study because of the change in transport conditions of liquefied

CO2 compared to the Phase-1 study.
