Global Carbon Capture: How’s it going?
At the 2025 World Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (WCCUS) Conference, Professor Philip Ringrose(NTNU/NTVA) shared an honest assessment of the global carbon capture effort — and the verdict was cautiously optimistic. Ringrose noted that global emissions may finally begin to decline in 2026, with China’s clean-energy expansion marking a turning point. While natural systems still […]
Northern Lights Field Trip
The Northern Lights project is developing an open and flexible infrastructure to transport CO2 from capture sites by ship to a receiving terminal in western Norway for intermediate storage, before being transported by pipeline for safe and permanent storage in a reservoir 2,600 metres under the seabed. During the 2025 World CCUS Conference. The project […]
TGS and Equinor collaborate to drive digital transformation in CCS operations
TGS has entered a close collaboration with Equinor, advancing the digitalisation of carbon capture and storage operations. This agreement strengthens TGS’ ongoing cooperation with Equinor by integrating cutting-edge technology to optimise field operations. Northern Lights will integrate TGS’ Prediktor Data Gateway into its digital system to enhance management of the full CO2 value chain, from the […]
Bonaparte CCS project awarded Major Project Status in Australia
The Australian Government has granted Major Project Status to the Bonaparte CCS Project, marking it as the country’s first offshore carbon capture and storage project to achieve this designation. Operated by Inpex subsidiary Inpex Browse E&P (53%), with partners TotalEnergies (26%) and Woodside (21%), the project aims to store over 10 million tonnes of CO2 […]
CCUS in action: Insights from four real-world case studies
Technical progress in CCUS is moving fast, and so is the complexity of real-world implementation. These four presentations from the EAGE’s E-Lectures library showcase practical solutions to key challenges in CO2 storage site characterisation, monitoring, and full-chain CCS development. Each case offers field-tested methods that can inform and enhance your own project work, whether in […]
DNV launches CCUS certification service
DNV has launched a service specification for the verification and certification of carbon capture, utilisation, and storage (CCUS) facilities. DNV-SE-0696 provides a structured methodology to derisk CCUS projects across design, construction, and operation, said DNV. With CCS projected to grow from 41 MtCO2/yr today to 1300 MtCO2/yr in 2050, mitigating 6% of global CO2 emissions […]
UK commits £200 million to Scotland’s Acorn carbon capture project
The UK government has announced a £200 million investment in the Acorn carbon capture and storage (CCS) project in St Fergus, Scotland, marking a major step forward in its strategy to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. The investment, unveiled during a government spending review, reinforces the UK’s backing of carbon capture as a […]
DNV signals turning point for global CCS deployment
DNV’s newly released Energy Transition Outlook: CCS to 2050 highlights a pivotal shift in the global deployment of carbon capture and storage (CCS), forecasting that global investment in the sector will reach $80 billion within the next five years. The report reveals that CCS capture and storage capacity is expected to quadruple by 2030, driven […]
Sonardyne awarded contract for monitoring UK’s first offshore CCS site
Sonardyne has been selected by the Northern Endurance Partnership (NEP) – a joint venture between bp, Equinor, and TotalEnergies – to deliver baseline environmental monitoring services for the UK’s first offshore carbon capture and storage site under the North Sea. The company will deploy seabed landers at key locations above and around the subsurface Endurance […]
