Carbon capture and storage
Cella’s approach borrows established EOR practices to mineralize pure‑phase CO2 in basalt rocks while reducing water requirements.
Experts and industry leaders gathered in The Woodlands, Texas, recently to sift through the challenges of carbon capture, utilization, and storage. The puzzle is coming together, but some critical pieces are still needed before the results look like the picture on the box.
An investigative study examines the use of creeping shale formations as a more durable alternative to conventional cement barriers in carbon dioxide storage wells, potentially enabling safer long-term underground carbon storage.

An economic analysis of a wellbore methodology in natural gas fields that uses gasification of methane within the wellbore (not within the reservoir) for hydrogen production while incorporating simultaneous sequestration of carbon. This new methodology offers significant energy and cost savings in addition to zero carbon being produced to the surface. -
Definition and call for participation in the 11th Society of Petroleum Engineers Comparative Solution Project, which is motivated by the immense challenge of achieving geological carbon storage at a scale that impacts significantly atmospheric emission of carbon dioxide.

To meet the objective of balancing economic prosperity, energy security, and environmental protection, a natural gas gasification process within a downhole completion tool is proposed that converts methane wells into hydrogen production wells, while simultaneously capturing the process-generated carbon downhole and reinjecting the carbon dioxide into the surrounding g…

The US supermajor aims to speed the commercialization of a new liquid solvent that strips carbon dioxide from industrial flue gas.
-
The partnership seeks to shift the economics of carbon capture across high-emitting industrial sectors.
