The World CCUS Conference invites the presentation of new and original material in a range of multi-disciplinary topics in Geoscience and Engineering. The conference takes plagiarism very seriously. Therefore, if an extended abstract or paper, after careful review, examination and consideration, is rejected on the basis of plagiarism, ALL authors of the abstract/paper will be denied the opportunity for further abstract submissions for the following three years. Note that this means that NO abstracts/papers from ANY of the authors (as author or co-author on subsequent papers) will be accepted for ANY World CCUS Conference for a period of three years starting on the date of the event for which the paper was originally submitted. Add AI text, limited use of AI is accepted.

Titles should be short (max 16 words (or 127 characters), longer titles will be cut off) and relevant. Extended abstracts must be in English, original and not have appeared in any other publication.

A summary of the extended abstract (max. 200 words) must be submitted as well.

The body of the extended abstract needs to be within two to four (2-4) full pages in length, paper size A4. Longer or shorter sized abstracts will not be included in the review process and therefore be rejected. The extended abstract should consist of text and appropriate figures supporting the key message. The text should contain at least one figure and references. Four pages of text alone are not acceptable.

Please do not use more than 1 column for text, do not frame the text, and upload the body of your extended abstract as one document with embedded figures.

A good extended abstract set in the conference template consists of an introduction, the main description of theory or method broken down as appropriate and illustrated with figures, conclusions, optional acknowledgements and references. It should reflect work that is actually completed at the time of submission and not plans or ideas that are still taking shape in the mind of the author or research that is still highly immature.

The extended abstract must concentrate in itself the essential information of the presentation: purpose, methods, results and conclusions. It should be an abbreviated, informative, accurate representation of the presentation and not a mere recital of the subjects to be covered.

The Selection Committee will consider all extended abstracts submitted via the portal by the submission deadline of 28 February 2025, 23:59 CET. After reviewing and selecting the abstracts the oral and poster sessions will be composed. Submitters will be informed if their paper is accepted or rejected via email.

Each extended abstract will be reviewed by at least 2 reviewers prior to the technical programme selection meeting.

Authors are required to indicate the topic under which their extended abstract should be evaluated by the review committee.

If you have to withdraw your presentation, please do so as soon as possible via the online response form.

Kindly note that if you withdraw your presentation, the related extended abstract will not be uploaded to EarthDoc or, when uploaded before your withdrawal, it will be removed from the database.

Please note that the deadline to withdraw your presentation without consequences is 1 July 2025, 23:59 CEST.

If you withdraw your presentation after 1 July 2025, 23:59 CEST, you will be listed as no-show and you risk to be banned as a speaker at the World CCUS Conference for 3 years.

After this deadline it is still possible to list a co-author as replacement presenter. Kindly use the online response form to inform us about the replacement presenter.

The accepted extended abstract is published on EarthDoc. Badly written extended abstracts not only reflect poorly on the authors, but also on the conference. Many more people read the accepted extended abstracts than those attending the presentation. Therefore The World CCUS Conference will only consider properly written and informative extended abstracts that are submitted in line with the template instructions.
