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 […]

MIT’s nanotech innovation could cut carbon capture costs by at least 20%

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a novel nanofiltration membrane that could significantly reduce the cost of carbon capture and conversion processes. This innovative technology addresses a longstanding challenge in carbon capture systems: the trade-off between efficient CO2 capture and its subsequent release. Typically, compounds that capture CO2 effectively struggle to […]

Netherlands invests in Aramis CCS project

The Dutch government has announced a €639 million investment in the Aramis CCS project, the country’s largest carbon capture and storage initiative. This investment comes after TotalEnergies and Shell withdrew part of their planned investments in the project. To keep the project and the Netherlands’ climate goals on track, the government has stepped in to […]

UK government and Eni reach financial close for the Liverpool Bay CCS project

Eni has reached financial close with the UK Government’s Department of Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) for the Liverpool Bay CCS project, a cornerstone of the HyNet North West industrial cluster. The initiative aims to significantly reduce industrial carbon emissions in the Liverpool and Manchester regions by 2028. The project includes the development of […]

Successful conclusion of UK’s first CO2 injection test for CCS at the Poseidon project

Perenco, Carbon Catalyst and Harbour Energy have successfully wrapped up the UK’s first offshore CO2 injection test at the Poseidon project in the North Sea. The project involved injecting liquid CO2 into a heavily depleted North Sea gas field, achieving injection rates above 1 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa). “This technical feat wasn’t just an […]

TGS announces completion of CO2 storage assessments for Gulf Coast regions

TGS has released the Central Gulf Coast–Haynesville CO2 Storage Assessment, the final segment of the comprehensive Mega Gulf Coast Assessment. This assessment builds on previous releases for the East Gulf Coast and Gulf Coast assessments in 2024, culminating in a dataset covering over 16,000 key wells with core-calibrated petrophysical and stratigraphic interpretation across more than 166,370 square miles […]

DNV awards Approval in Principle for LCO2 carrier design developed by Shell and Brevik Engineering

DNV has awarded a detailed Approval in Principle (AiP) to Shell International Trading and Shipping Company Limited and Brevik Engineering for their design of a 74,000 cubic metres (cbm) liquid carbon dioxide (LCO2) carrier. The vessel is specifically designed for the Asia Pacific market to enable cost competitive transport of CO2. Carbon capture and storage […]

InCapture and G-15-AP CCS joint venture awards technical assessment work and signs collaboration agreement with Halliburton for carbon capture and storage

GHG Assessment Permit G-15-AP Operator InCapture Pty Ltd (InCapture) and joint venture partners SK earthon Australia Pty Ltd (SK earthon) and Carbon CQ Pty Ltd (CarbonCQ) have awarded Halliburton Australia Pty Ltd the full scope of the G-15-AP CCS Declaration of Storage Project and signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Halliburton to progress towards […]

CCSA report urges UK government to accelerate carbon capture projects

The Carbon Capture and Storage Association (CCSA) has released a new report outlining key strategies to reduce the costs of CCUS technologies. The report emphasises that achieving the UK’s net-zero targets is unattainable without large-scale CCUS deployment, a view reinforced by the Climate Change Committee’s Seventh Carbon Budget Advice. Key recommendations from CCSA’s report include: […]

STRYDE provides nodes for onshore CO2 storage in Denmark

STRYDE has secured a deal to supply 42,000 autonomous nodes to Smart Seismic Solutions (S3). The nodes will be deployed on a 3D high-density seismic survey for the CarbonCuts carbon dioxide (CO2) Storage Project onshore in Denmark. “The CarbonCuts Project is a high-profile initiative aimed at identifying optimal onshore subsurface storage solutions for CO2 sequestration,” […]
