Carbon capture and storage
Ir Mohd Yusri Mohamed Yusof spoke with JPT about the national oil company’s carbon capture and storage efforts, the value of cross-border cooperation, and his expectations for OTC Asia, to be held 31 March–2 April 2026 in Kuala Lumpur.
The company said it has started transporting and storing carbon dioxide in its second carbon capture and storage operation in the state.
In the past year, publications on CO2, natural gas, and hydrogen storage have increasingly focused on the design, evaluation, and optimization of storage plans. These efforts encompass a broad spectrum of challenges and innovations, including the expansion of storage reservoirs from depleted gas fields and saline aquifers to stratified carbonate formations and heavy-o…

Recently published research suggests that carbon dioxide stored underground will stay there for millions of years.

The funding is for 33 research and development projects which will tackle the technical challenges of capturing CO2.

Carbon capture and storage, with the potential for usage, will be crucial if the world is to prevent global warming. While Norway has been injecting captured CO2 in saline aquifers since the mid-1990s, there has been no attempt, and no plans exist, in Europe to use CO2 for EOR. Why not?

Spending on low-carbon projects will increase by $60 billion this year, 10% higher than 2022, led by wind developments but helped by a significant rise in funding for hydrogen and carbon capture, utilization and storage infrastructure, Rystad Energy research shows.

A big jump in the tax incentives offered for putting CO2 in the ground, hopefully forever, has set off a mad rush to sequester CO2. But is that really the best option?
