Carbon capture and storage
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.
The storage permits, the first of their kind, allow the Stratos facility to move forward with plans to capture and store up to 500,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide per year.
The first phase of the Norwegian project is expected to receive its first carbon dioxide this year, with the second phase slated to start operations in late 2028.

In chemical-looping combustion (CLC), oxygen is transferred from an air reactor to a fuel reactor by means of a solid oxygen carrier. -
The deployment of appropriate CO2-separation technologies for natural gas processing is viewed as an abatement measure toward global CO2-emissions reduction. Selection of the optimum technology requires special attentiion.

The authors discuss the results of a pilot project to capture post-combustion CO2 for purposes of EOR.
-
Several geological settings are appropriate for geological storage of carbon dioxide (CO2), including depleted oil and gas reservoirs, deep brine-saturated formations, CO2-flood enhanced-oil-recovery (EOR) operations, and enhanced coalbed-methane recovery.

Total has been involved in CO2 injection and geological storage for more than 15 years, in Canada (Weyburn oil field) for enhanced oil recovery and in Norway (Sleipner and Snohvit fields) for aquifer storage.
