Carbon capture and storage
This paper presents an experiment investigating dissolution of basaltic primary minerals and conditions favorable for secondary phase formation under deep subsurface storage conditions.
This study aims to investigate the efficacy of chemical additives strontium chloride and barium hydroxide in accelerating CO₂ trapping mechanisms, their effect on dissolution of carbonate-bearing minerals, and resulting poroelastic changes in the host rock.
This paper describes the potential of combined-cycle technology (use of a gas turbine and a steam turbine together to turn fuel into electricity) in offshore carbon-capture applications.

For more than a century, LSU has shaped petroleum engineering education, but few assets showcase its impact like the PERTT Lab. With six deep test wells and rare reservoir-depth gas-injection capabilities, the facility is helping drive breakthroughs in well control, carbon-dioxide injection, and next-generation energy technologies.

Following the start of injection in August, Northern Lights has issued the first set of certificates documenting that the carbon dioxide captured from the Heidelberg Materials cement factory has been transported and stored permanently in the Aurora reservoir.
-
As COP30 wrapped up in Brazil, the country finds itself at an inflection point, positioned to deliver South America’s first carbon-dioxide injection by mid-2026.
-
The 14 available locations are estimated to be able to provide up to 2 gigatonnes of additional carbon-dioxide storage capacity.
