據海上工程師網2021年12月15日報道,挪威石油和能源部周三表示,已有5家公司申請在挪威大陸架建造二氧化碳儲存設施。
挪威石油和能源部在9月份提議,在北海和北極巴倫支海設立兩個海上地區,供有意開發海底二氧化碳儲存的企業使用。 二氧化碳儲存是一種技術,能夠捕獲溫室氣體二氧化碳,并將其儲存在地下,遠離大氣層。
挪威能源部在一份聲明中說,在12月9日截止日期前提出申請的5家公司分別是殼牌公司、挪威Equinor、地平線能源公司、北極光公司和瓦爾能源公司。
北極光公司是Equinor、殼牌公司和道達爾公司的合資公司,該公司已經在挪威最大的天然氣田Troll附近開發了一個單獨的二氧化碳儲存設施。
意大利埃尼公司的挪威子公司瓦爾能源公司上周宣布,該公司將加入Equinor和地平線能源公司的一個項目,在巴倫支海開發二氧化碳儲存。
挪威石油和能源大臣Marte Mjoes Persen表示:“令人欣慰的是,這些公司對分配用于儲存二氧化碳的海上地區表現出了濃厚興趣。”
挪威政府尋求促進二氧化碳捕獲和儲存技術的發展,因為這可以幫助該國實現其氣候目標,并支持無排放氫氣和氨的生產。
挪威能源部表示,計劃在2022年上半年分配海上二氧化碳儲存地區。

Five Firms Seek to Develop CO2 Storage off Norway
Five companies have applied to build carbon dioxide (CO2) storage on the Norwegian continental shelf, the country's oil and energy ministry said on Wednesday.
The ministry proposed in September two offshore areas, one in the North Sea and one in the Arctic Barents Sea, for companies interested in developing CO2 storage under the seabed. CO2 storage is technology that enables the capture of carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, and its storage underground and away from the atmosphere.
The five companies that applied by a Dec. 9 deadline were Shell, Equinor, Horizon Energy, Northern Lights, and Vaar Energi, the ministry said in a statement.
Northern Lights is a joint venture between Equinor, Shell, and Total, which is already developing a separate CO2 storage near Norway's largest gas field, Troll.
Vaar Energi, a Norwegian subsidiary of Italy's Eni, last week announced it was joining a project by Equinor and Horisont Energi to develop a CO2 storage in the Barents Sea.
"It is gratifying that the companies are showing interest in being allocated acreage for storing CO2," Minister of Oil and Energy Marte Mjoes Persen said.
The Norwegian government seeks to promote development of CO2 capture and storage technology as it could help the country to reach its climate goals and support production of emissions-free hydrogen and ammonia.
The ministry said it planned to allocate the offshore acreage for CO2 storage in the first half of 2022.
