The maritime industry is exploring pathways to mitigate its environmental footprint using negative emissions technologies (NETs) such as carbon capture and storage (CCS) by 2050 to achieve significantly lower gas emissions from shipping and offshore facilities. This paper investigates the safety and integrity challenges associated with onboard CCS (OCCS) deployed on marine vessels and offshore installations.

Are Next-Generation Batteries Ready for Marin and Offshore Electrification? A Safety Perspective
April 28, 2025
This work provides an analysis of a comprehensive understanding of the benefits and drawbacks of the next-generation batteries and highlights their critical safety concerns that must be addressed before adopting or deploying them widely in marine operations and offshore energy storage applications. The study examines the working principles and technological maturity of seven next-generation batteries: silicon anode, sodium-ion, lithium-sulfur, lithium metal, vanadium redox-flow, zinc-air, and solid-state batteries and their suitability for maritime use.

Analyzing the Impact of Augmented Reality Head-Mounted Displays on Workers’ Safety and Situational Awareness in Hazardous Industrial Settings
Augmented Reality Head-Mounted Displays (AR-HMDs) have proven effective to assist workers. However, they may degrade their Safety and Situational Awareness (SSA), particularly in complex and hazardous industrial settings. This paper analyzes, objectively and subjectively, the effects of AR-HMDs’ on workers’ SSA in a simulated hazardous industrial environment.
