Decarbonization
Cella’s approach borrows established EOR practices to mineralize pure‑phase CO2 in basalt rocks while reducing water requirements.
Experts and industry leaders gathered in The Woodlands, Texas, recently to sift through the challenges of carbon capture, utilization, and storage. The puzzle is coming together, but some critical pieces are still needed before the results look like the picture on the box.
An investigative study examines the use of creeping shale formations as a more durable alternative to conventional cement barriers in carbon dioxide storage wells, potentially enabling safer long-term underground carbon storage.

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 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 meeting of leaders, experts, and stakeholders emphasized the urgency of addressing greenhouse-gas emissions to mitigate climate change and align with global sustainability goals.

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.
