Sydney-listed Global Energy Ventures (GEV) has finished design work on its planned compressed hydrogen carrier.

The C-H2 ship has been developed with Capilano Maritime Design. It will have a 2,000-tonne (23-cbm) capacity, which GEV described as "large".

The plan is to carry the green fuel from Australia to the Asia Pacific region, drawing on the company's expertise in compressed natural gas vessels.
