Energy transition
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 company said that quitting its solar and onshore wind power generation projects in Brazil is part of a "portfolio adjustment."
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.
