Decarbonization
The Origins hub in Alberta, with plans to begin operations in January 2027, is expected to store up to 1.5 mtpa of carbon dioxide initially, with room to grow.
The Yara Sluiskil facility in the Netherlands expects to capture and liquefy 800,000 tons of carbon dioxide annually. The carbon dioxide is to be transported by Northern Lights vessels to Øygarden, Norway, where it will be stored.
This paper presents an experiment investigating dissolution of basaltic primary minerals and conditions favorable for secondary phase formation under deep subsurface storage conditions.

This study aims to investigate the efficacy of chemical additives strontium chloride and barium hydroxide in accelerating CO₂ trapping mechanisms, their effect on dissolution of carbonate-bearing minerals, and resulting poroelastic changes in the host rock. -
This paper describes the potential of combined-cycle technology (use of a gas turbine and a steam turbine together to turn fuel into electricity) in offshore carbon-capture applications.

This study reviews subsurface microbial activity, biomineralization reactions, and mechanisms prevalent for bioremediating wells, stabilizing cements, and increasing trapping during CO₂ injection and storage.

The world produces vast volumes of carbon dioxide, and CO₂-EOR is one of the best-established techniques for increasing oil production. Despite this, its use remains limited because of economic, logistical, and operational challenges.
-
This paper uses the structural-integrity-management framework to evaluate the current structural integrity of chosen platforms, highlighting their potential and limitations for carbon capture, use, and storage purposes based on in-service assessments.

With millions of wells having been drilled in the US since the beginning of the oil age, the land is pocked with old, unused wellbores. For most, repurposing is a pipe dream. Plugging is the best option.

SPE Offshore Europe 2027 has unveiled its conference theme, “(Em)Powering Europe: Securing Our Energy Future,” and opened the call for technical paper proposals for the Aberdeen event.

Modeling solubility trapping at reservoir scale remains a key challenge for carbon storage projects. This study introduces a novel sub-grid convective mixing model, implemented in the Open Porous Media Flow simulator and applied to the SPE11 benchmark, that enables accurate prediction of carbon dioxide dissolution trapping in geological storage using computationally e…
