The Pawnee Carbon Sequestration Project, which would use a repurposed well, is planned to capture and store up to 400,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide, with first injection targeted for early 2027.
DNV notes that energy and industrial process-related carbon emissions will have dropped by 2050 by only 44% from today’s level, not even halfway to the net-zero pledge envisioned by the Paris climate agreement.
SPE's new Asset Integrity Technical Section brings together industry experts to advance best practices in reliability engineering, asset integrity, risk reduction, and infrastructure performance. The global community will focus on the safe, reliable, and sustainable operation of energy assets across both traditional and emerging energy sectors.
