Developing carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects in Southeast Asia is considerably cheaper than developing similar projects in more developed economies, such as Australia.
Genesis, a wholly owned TechnipEnergies company, have signed a Master Service Agreement (MSA) with PZE Limited (PZE) to provide decarbonisation and advisory services for various projects in Australia.
A windfall tax, reportedly due to be announced today, risks “destabilising” a planned £200bn of investment in the UK energy system this decade, the industry trade body has warned.
Harbour Energy’s chief executive Linda Cook said carbon capture and storage (CCS) offers greater impact for reaching net zero goals, as the regulator announces plans for its first carbon storage licensing round.
A business group has renewed demands that government must put support behind low carbon projects in the north east that will "shift the dial" as concerns have been raised that confidence in key low carbon technologies such as carbon capture and storage (CCS) has faltered, a new report has found.
The Australian government has granted A$5 million (US$3.5 million) of funding for deepC Store’s offshore floating carbon capture and storage (CCS) hub dubbed CStore1. The proposed project, expected to store carbon dioxide (CO2) from Japan would be Asia Pacific’s first floating multi-user CCS hub, said the Perth-based company.
Gas coupled with renewable power is a natural partnership on the road to net zero and the pairing is already cutting emissions in many countries, according to global energy advisory company RISC.
The momentum of the energy transition must be maintained without compromising energy security, and that includes affordability, as well as universal access to reliable energy. But “we can only do this through decarbonisation, not defossilisation,” said Santos chief executive Kevin Gallagher.
BP and Linde have announced plans to build a carbon capture and storage (CCS) project in Texas, with a view to supporting low-carbon hydrogen production at Linde’s Houston facilities.
Australia’s main oil and gas industry lobby group sees the carbon capture utilisation and storage (CCUS) business as a crucial opportunity for Australia, as well as the oil and gas sector.
ExxonMobil (NYSE:XOM) and Pertamina, the state-owned energy company of Indonesia, have signed a joint study agreement to assess the potential for large-scale implementation of lower-emissions technologies, including carbon capture and storage (CCS), as well as hydrogen production.
Chevron (NYSE:CVX) and Pertamina will together explore potential business opportunities in geothermal, carbon capture utilisation and storage (CCUS), as well as hydrogen, in Indonesia, after signing an agreement in Washington.
Japanese oil refiner Eneos Holdings and utility J-Power have teamed up to launch the country's first permanent carbon capture and storage (CCS) project by the end of this decade. Significantly, if CCS is successful in Japan, it would bode well for global liquefied natural gas (LNG) demand, as the world’s second biggest importer could better balance its net zero ambitions.
Eni’s Scope 1 and 2 emissions increased in 2021, largely as a result of its African operations, but it offset this through the acquisition of 2 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent in forestry credits.
Energy chiefs have given reassurance that while the pipeline of carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects is currently “modest”, it is “growing rapidly”.

Widespread adoption of carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) technologies in Southeast Asia remains highly unlikely, according to the latest findings from the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA).
Japanese companies Inpex and JGC are teaming up with Thai upstream player PTT Exploration & Production (PTTEP) to explore potential carbon capture and storage (CCS) developments in Thailand. The move follows PTTEP’s recent announcement that it has set a 2050 carbon neutral target.
