3 FAQs about [Large scale storage Norway]
Does Norway have a CO2 storage Atlas?
The Norwegian Offshore Directorate has compiled a CO 2 storage atlas for the Norwegian continental shelf. Norway has extensive experience with CO 2 management. Since 1996, CO 2 from gas production on the Norwegian continental shelf has been captured and reinjected into sub-seabed formations.
How much CO2 can we store in Norway?
The seabed off the coast of Norway is well suited to storing CO 2, and we can potentially store the equivalent of 1000 years of Norwegian emissions on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. Our ambition is to develop value chains for CO 2 transport and storage with an annual capacity of 30—50 million tonnes of CO 2 (Equinor share) by 2035.
Can CO2 be stored under the seabed in Norway?
There is significant potential for large-scale storage of CO 2 under the Norwegian continental shelf, and it is vital to ensure that the CO 2 does not leak from where it is stored. Thus, storing CO 2 under the seabed is the most secure option in Norway.
