CO2

The UK North Sea Transition Authority has awarded the required permits for the East Irish Sea project, and the project has reached financial close. The carbon capture and storage project is expected to receive its first carbon dioxide in 2028.

The test marks a milestone in the Poseidon CCS project, which aims to store carbon dioxide in the depleted gas reservoir below the Leman development in the southern North Sea.

The first phase of the Norwegian project is expected to receive its first carbon dioxide this year, with the second phase slated to start operations in late 2028.

This paper aims to investigate the use of an optimization workflow to maximize both hydrogen storage and the net present value to obtain an optimal reservoir development strategy.

The authors introduce a novel framework combining dynamic mode decomposition, a data-driven model-reduction technique, with direct data assimilation to streamline the calibration of carbon-dioxide plume evolution models.

The study uses laboratory and digital core analyses of Berea sandstone to estimate petrophysical and dynamic properties for adjustment of predicted precipitation and flow reduction in reservoir simulation models of intermittent CO₂ injection with aquifer drive.

In this paper, a dynamic multiphase-flow simulator is used to evaluate the effectiveness and suitability of using a subsea capping stack to respond to a CO₂ well blowout.

This paper describes the development of guidelines to determine the most suitable corrosion-resistant alloys for downhole injection equipment in wells for carbon capture and storage and carbon capture, use, and storage.

The plan calls for developing a gas field, CCUS, and onshore compression, with first production expected in 2028.

The road to a low-carbon world is paved with more than just shiny new facilities and the promise to deliver impressive CO₂ reductions from the atmosphere. Without the software to site, monitor, and maintain those facilities, the drive for net zero would be stuck in neutral.
