About the Presentation

An overview of the Northern Lights CCS project in Norway will be presented with an update on the recent exploration-confirmation well.  The business context to the project includes developing the concept of an ‘open storage’ facility attracting new sources of CO2 capture. The scale-up potential is being partly addressed by building CO2 storage exploration ‘piggy-backed’ on HC exploration, which opens the opportunities for good synergies in the energy transition. Some of the future challenges include quantifying storage risks, regional mapping and reservoir modelling of large high-resolution models.
