Abstract
A system for marine electricity generation and solid carbon production includes an offshore marine platform on which is mounted a regassification system for regassification of liquid methane; a methane splitting system producing solid carbon and gaseous hydrogen; and a power generation system producing electricity and exhaust heat. A first marine vessel is moored adjacent the marine platform for delivery of the liquid methane, and a second marine vessel is moored adjacent the marine platform for removal of the solid carbon produced by the methane splitting system. The hydrogen produced from the methane splitting system is used in a fuel stream for the power generation system. The exhaust heat from the power generation system is utilized in the methane splitting process. Also mounted on the marine platform is a solid carbon handling system disposed to manage the large amount of solid carbon resulting from the methane splitting process.
