Carbon capture and storage
The firm’s latest analysis puts the bulk of the blame on a fragmented supply chain.
Sustainable energy continues to grow as a focus for reliable, affordable, and secure energy as seen from the past year of papers reviewed for this feature. Three primary areas are being reported on heavily: carbon use for enhanced oil recovery, geological hydrogen discovery, and critical minerals from the subsurface.
This study aims to systematically assess casing integrity and corrosion risks associated with CO2 injection in oil-recovery operations.

Ineos, the day-to-day operator of Greensand Future, with its partners Harbour Energy and Nordsøfonden, has made a final investment decision into the first commercial phase, with storage operations set to begin by early 2026. -
Permits for the East Side Cluster carbon storage project have been awarded, and participants have begun announcing final investment decisions.
-
DNV has certified the feasibility of ADNOC’s West Aquifer carbon dioxide storage site in the UAE, marking a significant milestone in the Middle East’s carbon capture and storage efforts.
-
The plan calls for developing a gas field, CCUS, and onshore compression, with first production expected in 2028.
-
Wood Mackenzie analysis projects a full repeal of the Inflation Reduction Act is unlikely, while industry proponents urge permitting overhaul and loosening of burdensome regulations.
-
The partnership between GLJ and Energy Fuse Group aims to leverage the expertise of both companies in project management, operational design, and subsurface and commercial evaluations to facilitate effective CO2 storage solutions.
-
A new type of porous material called a covalent organic framework quickly sucks up carbon dioxide from ambient air.
-
With emissions mineralization established as a proven approach, the companies’ next objective is to move the underlying technology toward commercial success.
-
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.
-
Consulting and engineering firm Wood is leading a joint industry partnership to create industry guidelines for carbon dioxide specifications to accelerate sustainable carbon capture, use, and storage projects.
