SaskPower has been involved in carbon capture and storage (CCS) initiatives due to regulations requiring emissions reductions from coal and natural gas power units. SaskPower has implemented CCS at its Boundary Dam power station unit 3, capturing over 100,000 tonnes of CO2 since start-up in 2014. This project captures 80-90% of CO2 from the unit and demonstrates CCS technology on a commercial scale, with potential for worldwide application to reduce CO2 emissions from power generation.

This document describes a carbon emission calculator software called CEC that estimates the amount of CO2 produced on macro and micro scales. The CEC asks the user to input data on fuel consumption, renewable energy usage, and electricity usage. It then calculates the approximate CO2 produced per day, month, or year using algorithms that factor in the carbon content of different fuels, the carbon lifecycle of renewable energy sources, and average CO2 emissions per kWh by country. The goal of the CEC is to help quantify CO2 emissions to encourage mitigating climate change.

"Proposed British Columbia LNG Facilities and Renewable Power: A Feasibility ...

Clean Energy Canada

1. The document discusses how an LNG facility can maximize the use of renewables while still meeting reliability and scheduling constraints. It finds that using wind and natural gas together can power the facility reliably without needing additional grid connections. 2. Maximizing renewables through this integrated approach creates 40% more permanent local jobs, reduces carbon pollution by 45%, and increases the LNG sales price by only 1% compared to business as usual. 3. The approach involves using wind turbines and natural gas power together, with natural gas able to take over when wind is low. Batteries provide backup power from the wind turbines. This integrated approach can be built within standard timelines for LNG facilities and their components.

Feasibility Assessment: Proposed B.C. LNG Facilities and Renewable Power

Clean Energy Canada

Navius Research Inc. and Steve Davis & Associates produced a conceptual design for powering the LNG terminal on the North Coast that would maximize renewables at its production facility and do so reliably, affordably and on schedule—using established commercial technologies. Further, doing so reduces that plant’s carbon pollution by 45 percent, its air emissions - nitrogen oxides - by 70 percent and increases local permanent jobs by 40 percent. The cost for all these benefits? A 1 percent increase in projected sales price of the LNG.

SUMMARY: Feasibility of Maximizing Renewables at LNG Facilities

Clean Energy Canada

Our recent Lock in Jobs, not Pollution report concluded that proposed British Columbia LNG facilities could reduce carbon pollution by 30 percent and increase jobs by 40 percent with only a two percent increase in LNG selling price. Such an outcome depended on a new transmission line and collaboration between proponents, which could risk project schedules. Given this, we commissioned Navius Research Inc. and Steve Davis & Associates Ltd. to answer two questions: 1. Could a single LNG facility reliably maximize its use of renewable energy while meeting schedule constraints? 2. What are the costs and benefits of doing so relative to business as usual? This presentation summarizes the results of this work

Findings of the IPCC

Climate Action Network South Asia

The document summarizes key findings from reports by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). It notes that CO2 emissions have increased 60% since 1990 and CO2 concentration in the atmosphere has risen 45%, with temperature increasing 0.9°C. Sea levels have risen 19 cm. It discusses Sri Lanka's renewable energy potential from sources like wind and solar power, and dependence on fossil fuel imports that stress foreign currency reserves. Transitioning to renewable energy could help mitigate climate change impacts and address energy security issues.

Policy Fair Poster - Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells for SAGD

Jordan Robinson

This study investigates integrating molten carbonate fuel cells (MCFC) into steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) facilities in Alberta's oil sands to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. MCFC could capture 90% of CO2 emissions from SAGD steam generation and provide low-carbon electricity. Modelling shows retrofitting MCFC to 27 SAGD facilities by 2037 could reduce emissions by 25 megatons per year by 2037 by capturing SAGD emissions and displacing coal power. Overall, integrating MCFC across the SAGD industry could reduce cumulative emissions by 865 megatons to 2060 while enabling early coal plant retirement in Alberta's electricity grid.

The document analyzes trends in the Queensland coal industry in Australia. It notes that the carbon offset from planting 1 million trees or changing light bulbs would be negated by emissions from the Queensland coal industry in under 7 hours and 32 hours respectively. It also discusses the industry's large contribution to greenhouse gas emissions, projected to be 848 million tonnes annually by 2025, and the Queensland government's plans to increase royalties and reliance on coal revenues. The coal industry is a major economic driver for Queensland but also a significant source of emissions.

Carbon Capture & Sequestration Feasibility Report; Pendergrass, PE, RG, Gary;...

MECConference

The document discusses carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) feasibility for coal-fired power plants in Missouri. It notes that the President's Climate Action Plan calls for new coal plants to implement CCS. It describes how CCS works to capture carbon dioxide from flue gas and sequester it underground. It outlines DOE projects to assess regional sequestration sites and feasibility studies at four Missouri power plant sites. The conclusion is that CCS is technically feasible but very expensive to implement. Decisions to use it will depend on cost comparisons to replacing plants or maintaining existing infrastructure.

Nick Huber

1. The document presents the results of an energy dispatch model that minimizes grid operating costs while integrating renewable energy sources like wind and solar. 2. The model predicts that adding 100% wind capacity would reduce CO2 emissions by 45% but increase overall costs by 50%, while 100% solar would reduce emissions by 49% but increase costs by 164%. 3. The best combination was found to be 50% wind, 25% solar, and 25% nuclear capacity, which would reduce emissions by 72% at an increased cost of only 63%.

Passive House: A Primer on High Performance Buildings

Michael Nemeth

The document discusses building energy use and efficiency opportunities in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. It shows that 58% of the city's carbon emissions come from buildings, with most from space heating. A Passivhaus building can reduce annual space heating costs by over 75% compared to average homes through superior insulation (R60 walls) and an ultra-tight building envelope. While Passivhaus construction costs about 8% more up front, the long-term energy savings outweigh the additional costs through lower utility bills. The document advocates for policies to support green building practices like Passivhaus in Saskatchewan.

ipcc-media

This document summarizes key findings from Chapter 2 of the IPCC's Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5°C. It finds that the remaining carbon budget for a 50% chance of limiting warming to 1.5°C is about 580 gigatons of CO2, with annual emissions currently at 42 gigatons. Pathways limiting warming to 1.5°C require global CO2 emissions to decline rapidly this decade and reach net zero around mid-century, along with varying levels of carbon dioxide removal. However, current country pledges under the Paris Agreement are not sufficient and would lead to around 3°C of warming this century unless significantly strengthened.

The document discusses how gas combined heat and power (CHP) is a cost-effective option for facilities facing the EPA's Boiler MACT compliance rules. CHP can help facilities reduce emissions and operating costs compared to installing pollution controls on existing boilers or switching to natural gas boilers. While CHP provides benefits to facilities, utilities, and the environment, it faces hurdles gaining approval from utilities due to regulations and financing challenges. Overall, the document argues that gas CHP is a superior compliance approach compared to traditional options under the Boiler MACT rules.

Smart Grid Gotland - Wind Power Integration

Daniel A. Brodén

1) The document discusses a research project analyzing how distributed demand response (DR) resources on the island of Gotland could help integrate additional wind power capacity into the local distribution network. 2) The research used real wind power and load data from 2012 to model different DR clusters and scenarios, including detached houses, industries and an energy storage system. 3) The results found that a minimum of 1300-1700 DR participants could help balance up to 5 MW of additional wind power across different seasons and scenarios while maintaining customer comfort levels. Participation from large industries further reduced the required cluster size. 4) While the study had some limitations, it demonstrated the potential benefits of DR for the Smart Grid Gotland project's objectives

Cutting Cost of CO2 Capture in Process Industry (CO2stCap) Project overview &...

Global CCS Institute

The CO2StCap project is a four year initiative carried out by industry and academic partners with the aim of reducing capture costs from CO2 intensive industries (more info here). The project, led by Tel-Tek, is based on the idea that cost reduction is possible by capturing only a share of the CO2emissions from a given facility, instead of striving for maximized capture rates. This can be done in multiple ways, for instance by capturing only from the largest CO2 sources at individual multi-stack sites utilising cheap waste heat or adapting the capture volumes to seasonal changes in operations. The main focus of this research is to perform techno-economic analyses for multiple partial CO2 capture concepts in order to identify economic optimums between cost and volumes captured. In total for four different case studies are developed for cement, iron & steel, pulp & paper and ferroalloys industries. The first part of the webinar gave an overview of the project with insights into the cost estimation method used. The second part presented the iron & steel industry case study based on the Lulea site in Sweden, for which waste-heat mapping methodology has been used to assess the potential for partial capture via MEA-absorption. Capture costs for different CO2 sources were compared and discussed, demonstrating the viability of partial capture in an integrated steelworks. Webinar presenters included Ragnhild Skagestad, senior researcher at Tel-Tek; Maximilian Biermann, PhD student at Division of Energy Technology, Chalmers University of Technology and Maria Sundqvist, research engineer at the department of process integration at Swerea MEFOS.

The document discusses carbon capture and storage (CCS) in the cement industry in Norway. It provides background on HeidelbergCement, one of the world's largest producers of building materials. It details a CCS project at Norcem's cement plant in Brevik, Norway, which aims to capture 400,000 tons of CO2 per year. The captured CO2 would be transported by ship and stored permanently underground in geological formations in the North Sea. The project represents an opportunity for CCS technology to be commercialized at a large scale. However, it depends on support through the FEED study process and a decision by the Norwegian Parliament and HeidelbergCement in 2020.

Telling the Norwegian CCS Story | PART I: CCS: the path to sustainable and em...

Global CCS Institute

In 2018, the Norwegian government announced its decision to continue the planning of a demonstration project for CO2 capture, transport and storage. This webinar focuses on the Fortum Oslo Varme CCS project. This is one of the two industrial CO2 sources in the Norwegian full-scale project. At their waste-to-energy plant at Klemetsrud in Oslo, Fortum Oslo Varme produces electricity and district heating for the Oslo region by incinerating waste. Its waste-to-energy plant is one of the largest land-based sources of CO2 emissions in Norway, counting for about 20 % of the city of Oslo’s total emissions. The CCS project in Oslo is an important step towards a sustainable waste system and the creation of a circular economy. It will be the first energy recovery installation for waste disposal treatment with full-scale CCS. Fortum Oslo Varme has understood the enormous potential for the development of a CCS industry in the waste-to-energy industry. The company is working to capture 90 % of its CO2 emissions, the equivalent of 400 000 tons of CO2 per year. This project will open new opportunities to reduce emissions from the waste sector in Norway and globally. Carbon capture from waste incineration can remove over 90 million tons of CO2 per year from existing plants in Europe. There is high global transfer value and high interest in the industry for the project in Oslo. The waste treated consists of almost 60 % biological carbon. Carbon capture at waste-to-energy plants will therefore be so-called BIO-CCS (i.e. CCS from the incineration of organic waste, thereby removing the CO2 from the natural cycle). Find out more about the project by listening to our webinar.

Decarbonizing Industry Using Carbon Capture: Norway Full Chain CCS

Global CCS Institute

Industrial sectors such as steel, cement, iron, and chemicals production are responsible for over 20 percent of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. To be on track to meet greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets established as part of the Paris Climate Accord, all sectors must find solutions to rapidly decarbonize, and carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology is the only path for energy-intensive industries. This webinar will explore how one country, Norway, is working to realize a large-scale Full Chain CCS project, where it is planning to apply carbon capture technology to several industrial facilities. This unique project explores capturing CO2 from three different industrial facilities - an ammonia production plant, a waste-to-energy plant, and a cement production facility. Captured CO2 will be then transported by ship to a permanent off-shore storage site operated as part of a collaboration between Statoil, Total, and Shell. When operational, Norway Full Chain CCS will capture and permanently store up to 1.5 million tons of CO2 per year. During this webinar, Michael Carpenter, Senior Adviser at Gassnova, will provide an overview of the Norway Full Chain CCS, and discuss the value that Norway aims to derive from it. The key stakeholders working on this exciting project, and how they cooperate, will be also discussed. Gassnova is a Norwegian state enterprise focusing on CCS technology, which manages the Norway Full Chain CCS project.

This webinar discussed two studies on achieving a low-carbon economy in the United States: the Risky Business Project and the U.S. Mid-Century Strategy Report. Four pathways were examined that could reduce US carbon emissions by 80% by 2050 through different technology mixes, including high renewables, high nuclear, high carbon capture and storage, and mixed resources. All pathways required upfront investments but achieved both emissions reductions and fuel savings over time. Implementation challenges included the pace of power plant construction, expanding the electric grid and building electric vehicle infrastructure. The webinar compared the pathways and findings to the U.S. Mid-Century Strategy Report.

Global CCS Institute

The Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum (CSLF) is a Ministerial-level international climate change initiative that is focused on the development of improved cost-effective technologies for carbon capture and storage (CCS). As part of our commitment to raising awareness of CCS policies and technology, CSLF, with support from the Global CCS Institute, is running a series of webinars showcasing academics and researchers that are working on some of the most interesting CCS projects and developments from around the globe. This first webinar comes to you from Abu Dhabi – the site of the Mid-Year CSLF Meeting and home of the Al Reyadah Carbon Capture, Utilization & Storage (CCUS) Project. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is one of the world’s major oil exporters, with some of the highest levels of CO2 emissions per capita. These factors alone make this a very interesting region for the deployment of CCUS both as an option for reducing CO2 emissions, but also linking these operations for the purposes of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) operations. In the UAE, CCUS has attracted leading academic institutes and technology developers to work on developing advanced technologies for reducing CO2 emissions. On Wednesday, 26th April, we had the opportunity to join the Masdar Institute’s Associate Professor of Chemical Engineering, Mohammad Abu Zahra to learn about the current status and potential for CCUS in the UAE. Mohammad presented an overview of the current large scale CCUS demonstration project in the UAE, followed by a presentation and discussion of the ongoing research and development activities at the Masdar Institute. This webinar offered a rare opportunity to put your questions directly to this experienced researcher and learn more about the fascinating advances being made at the Masdar Institute.

Energy Security and Prosperity in Australia: A roadmap for carbon capture and...

Global CCS Institute

On 15 February, a Roadmap titled for Energy Security and Prosperity in Australia: A roadmap for carbon capture and storage was released. The ACCS Roadmap contains analysis and recommendations for policy makers and industry on much needed efforts to ensure CCS deployment in Australia. This presentation focused on the critical role CCS can play in Australia’s economic prosperity and energy security. To remain within its carbon budget, Australia must accelerate the deployment of CCS. Couple with this, only CCS can ensure energy security for the power sector and high-emissions industries whilst maintain the the vital role the energy sector plays in the Australian economy. The webinar also detailed what is required to get Australia ready for widespread commercial deployment of CCS through specific set of phases, known as horizons in strategic areas including storage characterisation, legal and regulatory frameworks and public engagement and awareness. The Roadmap serves as an important focal point for stakeholders advocating for CCS in Australia, and will provide a platform for further work feeding into the Australian Government’s review of climate policy in 2017 and beyond. It is authored by the University of Queensland and Gamma Energy Technology, and was overseen by a steering committee comprising the Commonwealth Government, NSW Government, CSIRO, CO2CRC Limited, ACALET - COAL21 Fund and ANLEC R&D. This webinar was presented by Professor Chris Greig, from The University of Queensland.

The fifth webinar in the public engagement, education and outreach for CCS Series will explore the critically important subject of social site characterisation with the very researchers who named the process. We were delighted to be able to reunite CCS engagement experts Sarah Wade and Sallie Greenberg, Ph.D. to revisit their 2011 research and guidance: ‘Social Site Characterisation: From Concept to Application’. When published, this research and toolkit helped early CCS projects worldwide to raise the bar on their existing engagement practices. For this webinar, we tasked these early thought leaders with reminding us of the importance of this research and considering the past recommendations in today’s context. Sarah and Sallie tackled the following commonly asked questions: What exactly is meant by social site characterisation? Why it is important? What would they consider best practice for getting to understand the social intricacies and impacts of a CCS project site? This entire Webinar Series has been designed to share leading research and best practice and consider these learnings as applied to real project examples. So for this fifth Webinar, we were really pleased to be joined by Ruth Klinkhammer, Senior Manager, Communications and Engagement at CMC Research Institutes. Ruth agreed to share some of her experiences and challenges of putting social site characterisation into practice onsite at some of CMC’s larger research projects. This Webinar combined elements of public engagement research with real world application and discussion, explore important learnings and conclude with links to further resources for those wishing to learn more. This a must for anyone working in or studying carbon capture and storage or other CO2 abatement technologies. If you have ever nodded along at a conference where the importance of understanding stakeholders is acknowledged, but then stopped to wonder – what might that look like in practice? This Webinar is for you.

Managing carbon geological storage and natural resources in sedimentary basins

Global CCS Institute

To highlight the research and achievements of Australian researchers, the Global CCS Institute, together with Australian National Low Emissions Coal Research and Development (ANLEC R&D), will hold a series of webinars throughout 2017. Each webinar will highlight a specific ANLEC R&D research project and the relevant report found on the Institute’s website. This is the eighth webinar of the series and will present on basin resource management and carbon storage. With the ongoing deployment of CCS facilities globally, the pore space - the voids in the rock deep in sedimentary basins – are now a commercial resource. This is a relatively new concept with only a few industries utilising that pore space to date. This webinar presented a framework for the management of basin resources including carbon storage. Prospective sites for geological storage of carbon dioxide target largely sedimentary basins since these provide the most suitable geological settings for safe, long-term storage of greenhouse gases. Sedimentary basins can host different natural resources that may occur in isolated pockets, across widely dispersed regions, in multiple locations, within a single layer of strata or at various depths. In Australia, the primary basin resources are groundwater, oil and gas, unconventional gas, coal and geothermal energy. Understanding the nature of how these resources are distributed in the subsurface is fundamental to managing basin resource development and carbon dioxide storage. Natural resources can overlap laterally or with depth and have been developed successfully for decades. Geological storage of carbon dioxide is another basin resource that must be considered in developing a basin-scale resource management system to ensure that multiple uses of the subsurface can sustainably and pragmatically co-exist. This webinar was presented by Karsten Michael, Research Team Leader, CSIRO Energy.

Global CCS Institute

To highlight the research and achievements of Australian researchers, the Global CCS Institute together with ANLEC R&D will hold a series of webinars throughout 2017. Each webinar will highlight a specific ANLEC R&D research project and the relevant report found on the Institute’s website. This is the seventh webinar of the series and presented the results of a test program on the retrofitted Callide A power plant in Central Queensland. The behaviour of trace metals and the related characteristics of the formation of fine particles may have important implications for process options, gas cleaning, environmental risk and resultant cost in oxy-fuel combustion. Environmental and operational risk will be determined by a range of inter-related factors including: The concentrations of trace metals in the gas produced from the overall process; Capture efficiencies of the trace species in the various air pollution control devices used in the process; including gas and particulate control devices, and specialised systems for the removal of specific species such as mercury; Gas quality required to avoid operational issues such as corrosion, and to enable sequestration in a variety of storage media without creating unacceptable environmental risks; the required quality for CO2 transport will be defined by (future and awaited) regulation but may be at the standards currently required of food or beverage grade CO2; and Speciation of some trace elements Macquarie University was engaged by the Australian National Low Emissions Coal Research and Development Ltd (ANLEC R&D) to investigate the behaviour of trace elements during oxy-firing and CO2 capture and processing in a test program on the retrofitted Callide A power plant, with capability for both oxy and air-firing. Gaseous and particulate sampling was undertaken in the process exhaust gas stream after fabric filtration at the stack and at various stages of the CO2 compression and purification process. These measurements have provided detailed information on trace components of oxy-fired combustion gases and comparative measurements under air fired conditions. The field trials were supported by laboratory work where combustion took place in a drop tube furnace and modelling of mercury partitioning using the iPOG model. The results obtained suggest that oxy-firing does not pose significantly higher environmental or operational risks than conventional air-firing. The levels of trace metals in the “purified” CO2 gas stream should not pose operational issues within the CO2 Processing Unit (CPU). This webinar was presented by Peter Nelson, Professor of Environmental Studies, and Anthony Morrison, Senior Research Fellow, from the Department of Environmental Sciences, Macquarie University.

Global CCS Institute

To highlight the research and achievements of Australian researchers, the Global CCS Institute together with ANLEC R&D will hold a series of webinars throughout 2016 and 2017. Each webinar will highlight a specific ANLEC R&D research project and the relevant report found on the Institute’s website. This is the sixth webinar of the series and presented the results of chemical and mechanical changes that carbon dioxide (CO2) may have at a prospective storage complex in the Surat Basin, Queensland, Australia. Earth Sciences and Chemical Engineering researchers at the University of Queensland have been investigating the effects of supercritical CO2 injection on reservoir properties in the near wellbore region as a result of geochemical reactions since 2011. The near wellbore area is critical for CO2 injection into deep geological formations as most of the resistance to flow occurs in this region. Any changes to the permeability can have significant economic impact in terms of well utilisation efficiency and compression costs. In the far field, away from the well, the affected reservoir is much larger and changes to permeability through blocking or enhancement have relatively low impact. This webinar was presented by Prof Sue Golding and Dr Grant Dawson and will provide an overview of the findings of the research to assist understanding of the beneficial effects and commercial consequences of near wellbore injectivity enhancement as a result of geochemical reactions.

Global CCS Institute

The third webinar in the public engagement, education and outreach for CCS Series digged deeper, perhaps multiple kilometres deeper, to explore successful methods for engaging the public on the often misunderstood topic of carbon (CO2) storage. Forget bad experiences of high school geology, we kick-started our 2017 webinar program with three ‘rock stars’ of CO2 storage communication – Dr Linda Stalker, Science Director of Australia’s National Geosequestration Laboratory, Lori Gauvreau, Communication and Engagement Specialist for Schlumberger Carbon Services, and Norm Sacuta, Communication Manager at the Petroleum Technology Research Centre who all joined Kirsty Anderson, the Institute’s Senior Advisor on Public Engagement, to discuss the challenges of communicating about CO2 storage. They shared tips, tools and some creative solutions for getting people engaged with this topic. This entire Webinar Series has been designed to hear directly from the experts and project practitioners researching and delivering public engagement, education and outreach best practice for carbon capture and storage. This third webinar was less focused on research and more on the real project problems and best practice solutions. It is a must for anyone interested in science communication/education and keen to access resources and ideas to make their own communications more engaging.

Water use of thermal power plants equipped with CO2 capture systems

Global CCS Institute

The potential for increased water use has often been noted as a challenge to the widespread deployment of carbon capture and storage (CCS) to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. Early studies, that are widely referenced and cited in discussions of CCS, indicated that installation of a capture system would nearly double water consumption for thermal power generation, while more recent studies show different results. The Global CCS Institute has conducted a comprehensive review of data available in order to clarify messages around water consumption associated with installation of a capture system. Changes in water use estimates over time have been evaluated in terms of capture technology, cooling systems, and how the data are reported. Guido Magneschi, Institute’s Senior Advisor – Carbon Capture, and co-author of the study, presented the results of the review and illustrated the main conclusions.

Global CCS Institute

The Global CCS Institute launched The Global Status of CCS: 2016 at a dedicated event at the 22nd conference of the parties (COP 22) in Marrakech on Tuesday, 15 November. The Global Status of CCS: 2016 report is an essential reference for industry, government, research bodies, and the broader community, providing a comprehensive overview of global and regional CCS developments. Following the report launch, we will run a number of webinars commencing in November 2016, through to early 2017. A Summary of the Global Status of CCS: 2016 will be accessible on our website from 15 November, and includes updates on key CCS facilities, including two major facilities now in operation: Shell’s Quest Project in Canada Tomakomai CCS Demonstration Project in Japan These projects are significant 2016 milestones and testament to the safety, reliability and cost-effectiveness of CCS as an integral technology to meeting Paris Agreement climate change targets. Please join us for the first of the Global Status of CCS: 2016 webinar series. Saline Aquifer Storage Performance at the Quest CCS Project As one of a handful of large-scale CCS projects currently injecting CO2 into a dedicated saline aquifer storage site, Shell’s Quest project offers a unique case study into the performance of dedicated storage. The Quest project injects CO2 into the Basal Cambrian Sandstone located 2 km below the surface. After the first year of operations, the Quest reservoir has exceeded internal expectations. While the original premise called for eight wells, today only two of three constructed injection wells take 100 per cent of project volumes (~140 tonnes /hr). In this webinar, Simon O’Brien, Shell Quest Subsurface Manager, discussed storage performance at Quest after one year of operations as well as early results from the measurement, monitoring, and verification (MMV) plan.

CarbonNet storage site characterisation and selection process

Global CCS Institute

The CarbonNet Project has undertaken an extensive geoscience evaluation programme to identify, characterise and select prospective offshore storage sites in the nearshore Gippsland Basin, in south eastern Australia. The process builds upon basin and regional assessments undertaken at the national level, and focuses upon leads and play fairs assessed using a vast amount of geological data available from 50 years of petroleum exploration and developments in the basin. CarbonNet geoscience work has been subject to independent scientific peer reviews, and external assurance certification by Det Norske Veritas against the recommended practise for geological storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) J203. CarbonNet now holds five greenhouse gas assessments permits providing exclusive rights to explore, appraisal and develop a portfolio of CO2 storage sites. The project has identified a prioritised storage site capable of storing in excess of 125 Mt of CO2 for which a 'Declaration of Storage' has been prepared which demonstrates the 'fundamental determinants' and probability assessment of potential CO2 plume paths as required under Australian CCS legislation'. This webinar will be presented by Dr Nick Hoffman, CarbonNet Geosequestration Advisor, and will provide an overview of CarbonNet geoscience evaluation programme, referencing the relevant knowledge share products available on the Global CCS Institute website.
