Port Readiness Level Assessment Tool for OCC Offloading and CO₂ Transport by Ship

This Port Readiness Tool for Onboard Carbon Capture (OCC) and CO2 Transport (PRT-CO2) builds on the established Port Readiness Level for Marine Fuels assessment tool (PRL-MF) developed by the World Port Climate Action Program (WPCAP) in conjunction with the International Association of Ports and Harbors’ (IAPH) PRL working group. By mapping CO2 handling requirements onto the existing structure of this recognised industry standard, the PRT-CO2 aims to provide a familiar and practical framework for assessing port preparedness. This approach is designed to ensure that ports are equipped to address the distinct challenges posed by OCC and CO2 transport by ship while aligning with industry expectations.
