Carbon capture and storage
Texas and Louisiana are stepping up efforts to assume regulatory authority for an emerging wave of carbon capture and storage projects.
The CStore1 project aims to prove that floating storage and injection facilities are competitive with pipelines and fixed offshore infrastructure.
Glynn Williams, CEO of Silixa, offers his take on the role fiber-optic technology will play in the rise of CO2 storage and on the firm’s progress in the tight-rock sector.

Using CO2 as the geothermal power fluid to generate electricity from low-temperature abandoned hydrocarbon wells can help reduce well costs and optimize energy production. In this paper, a previously developed coupled well/reservoir model is extended to study the effects of fluid properties on thermal output. -
Neptune Energy, ExxonMobil, Rosewood, and EBN have agreed to cooperate on the L10 Carbon Capture and Storage project in the Dutch North Sea.
