Carbon capture and storage
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.
This work describes a study in which distributed data parallel training, paired with a node-local caching pipeline, enabled efficient multigraphics-processing-unit scaling for a CO₂-storage graph-neural-network surrogate while maintaining generalization.

DNV’s carbon capture and storage outlook forecasts a massive shortfall in the projects necessary to help the world reach net-zero emissions by 2050. -
The early enthusiasm for carbon capture and storage (CCS) is showing signs of strain as the limited capital availability and political support become clearer.

The two companies said they will evaluate the possibility of a joint venture to develop a direct air capture hub in South Texas, with XRG considering investing up to $500 million.

The plant at Heidelberg Materials’ cement facility in Brevik, Norway, has captured its first 1,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide.

The vessel is expected to be delivered by the end of the year, while the project's new port in Esjberg is on target for completion this autumn.
-
The agreement calls for approximately 2.3 million metric tons of carbon dioxide to be securely stored per year at 1PointFive’s Pelican Sequestration Hub in Louisiana.

The 2025 update to SPE’s CO₂ Storage Resources Management System (SRMS) is now available. Following a 2-year review, the updated framework—endorsed by six professional societies—builds on the original 2017 system to support consistent classification, evaluation, and reporting of CO₂ storage resources. A key change in the 2025 SRMS Update is the inclusion of CO₂ EOR as…

The UK North Sea Transition Authority has awarded the required permits for the East Irish Sea project, and the project has reached financial close. The carbon capture and storage project is expected to receive its first carbon dioxide in 2028.

The full potential of data can only be realized when it is viewed not in isolation but as part of the dynamic triad of hydrocarbons, the data, and the people who interpret it and act on it.

The test marks a milestone in the Poseidon CCS project, which aims to store carbon dioxide in the depleted gas reservoir below the Leman development in the southern North Sea.
