carbon capture and storage

We are involved in carbon capture and storage projects in several locations. These projects recover carbon dioxide (CO2) that would otherwise be released to the atmosphere and inject it into oil and gas reservoirs or deep saline aquifers. We continued our partnership with the European Commission and other organizations in the CO2ReMoVe project, designed to develop and demonstrate reliable methods for monitoring CO2 storage in geological reservoirs. Over the next few years, the project will evaluate a range of technologies to monitor the injection and storage of CO2. One of the sites being studied is the Sleipner Field, offshore Norway, where we have participated in the capture and geologic storage of more than 1 million metric tons of CO2 each year since 1998.

Controlled Freeze Zone
We have committed more than $100 million to complete development and testing of an improved natural gas treating technology which could make carbon capture and storage more affordable and significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This technology will assist in the development of additional gas resources to meet the world’s growing demand for energy and facilitate the application of carbon capture and storage, to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
