Global CCS Projects Database
…disposal method? A shift from CO2-EOR to geological storage is also seen in the database. Today, 80% of all CCS is associated with EOR activity, while by 2035, 80% is…
CCS: what CO2 purity for transport and disposal?
The minimum CO2 purity for CCS starts at 90%, while a typical CO2 disposal site requires 95%, CO2-EOR requires 96%, CO2 pipelines require 97% and CO2 liquefaction or shipping requires…
CO2 compression: stranger things?
…properties. This helps to fine-tune appropriate risking factors for vanilla CCS, blue hydrogen, CO2-EOR, CO2 shipping and super-critical CO2 power cycles. There is a wide moat around leading turbomachinery companies….
Solar Use within the Oil Industry?
…the project details. Leading examples include the use of concentrated solar for steam-EOR in Oman and California, Solar PV in the Permian, and leading efforts from specific companies: such as…
Shale growth: what if the Permian went CO2-neutral?
…initiatives, renewables, lifting and logistics. Pages 24-25 quantifies the sequestration potential from CO2-EOR, which could offset the remaining CO2 left after all the other initiatives above. Our conclusion is to…
Energy Technologies and Energy Transition
…26-pages) US Shale: No Country for Old Completion Designs (Aug-2019, 18-pages) Shale: upgrade to fiber? (July-2019, 25-pages) CO2-EOR in shale: the holy grail? (Aug-2019, online) Enhanced Oil Recovery in Shales:…
Carbon capture and storage: research conclusions?
…wells at 60-120 bar of pressure. Our base case cost is $20/ton, but can vary from $5-50/ton (model here) and there can be risks (data here). CO2-EOR can re-coup costs…
Midstream opportunities in the energy transition?
…hydrogen, CO2-EOR and novel combustion and next-gen DAC. We think c1GTpa will be in the US. CO2 purity must be >90%, ideally >97%. This is the largest new growth opportunity…
MHI CCS technology: performance, costs and emissions?
…pure CO2, for use in EOR at Hilcorp’s West Ranch Oil field. On the other hand, in its first three years of operation, “It suffered outages on 265 full days…
Carbon capture on ships: raising a sail?
…13. A new infrastructure industry would also be required, to handle CO2 in ports, move it to disposal sites, or integrate with CO2-EOR. We discuss this theme on pages 14-15….
