EverLoNG project partners launch Joint Venture

EverLoNG project partners Bouman Industries and Conoship International announced an agreement to build Ship-Based Carbon Capture (SBCC) systems.

The announcement was made at the Symposium of the Green Maritime Coalition, which took place in Groningen, Netherlands on the 23 November 2023. The new partnership, called Carobotreat Maritime, unlocks the potential of innovative maritime carbon capture systems, which is essential to reduce the carbon footprint of the existing fleet, and new ships. More recently, the collaboration announced the launch of their new website.

With a mission to provide the shipping industry with Ship-Based Carbon Capture, Carbotreat Maritime will be building systems for coastal ships smaller than 10.000 kW.

Conoship International and Carbotreat (a subsidiary of Bouman Industries) have been partners in EverLoNG since the project began in 2021. “It’s very nice and interesting to see that the developments within EverLoNG contribute to the launch of this Joint Venture. It emphasises the potential that the partners see in the further implementation of ship-based carbon capture as an important contribution to lower CO₂ emissions,” said EverLoNG project coordinator Marco Linders (TNO).
