Propelling a proposed CCS project from the drawing board to first carbon storage requires overcoming several hurdles.
The 2025 report confirms for the second year that the Appalachian Basin has the lowest methane intensity of any major oil and gas basin in the US.
The North Sea Transition Authority has advanced the UK’s plans for carbon storage by approving the drilling of a proposed appraisal well off the coast of Teesside.

An economic analysis of a wellbore methodology in natural gas fields that uses gasification of methane within the wellbore (not within the reservoir) for hydrogen production while incorporating simultaneous sequestration of carbon. This new methodology offers significant energy and cost savings in addition to zero carbon being produced to the surface.
