Logistics & Supply Chain - Rotterdam, South Holland, Netherlands
In a collaboration Gasunie, Vopak and Gate terminal investigate the development of an independent terminal for liquid CO2 on the Maasvlakte in the port of Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Such infrastructures are important in the context of the Dutch Climate Agreement and the European Green Deal. The independent hub terminal will be able to receive and deliver liquid CO2 via ships (and trucks and railcars) and will be connected to the depleted gas fields in the North Sea. This will make the necessary infrastructure available to all market parties, including those that do not have a direct connection to a CO2 pipeline. In addition, the terminal can be an important catalyst in the creation of a market for the reuse of CO2 as a raw material.
