The agreement signals Samsung C&T’s strategic expansion into the fast-growing carbon capture and storage sector. A global EPC heavyweight with deep experience delivering complex energy infrastructure — from power plants to LNG terminals — the company is now sharpening its focus on low-carbon solutions.

 

Axens brings to the alliance a powerful suite of proprietary technologies, including its DMX amine-based post-combustion carbon capture process, advanced CO₂ purification systems, and downstream solutions such as sustainable aviation fuel production.

 

"This partnership marks a significant step forward in our shared commitment to support industry decarbonization efforts. By combining Samsung C&T’s global project execution expertise with Axens’ cutting-edge CCUS technologies, the parties aim to accelerate the deployment of impactful and cost-effective solutions that reduce carbon emissions."

 

Jaehyoung Kim, ES Sales Team Vice President of Samsung C&T Corporation, said: "This collaboration with Axens reflects Samsung C&T’s commitment to expanding our footprint in the low-carbon energy sector and leveraging cutting-edge technologies to address climate change.”

 

An Axens spokesperson added: “Partnering with Samsung C&T allows Axens to bring our advanced DMX™ amine-based capture technology and integrated CCUS solutions to a broader global market, accelerating the deployment of impactful climate solutions. By combining our expertise in carbon capture with Samsung C&T’s, we aim to deliver reliable and efficient CCUS solutions for industrial applications.”
