About CO2 capture and storage 

 

 

The reductions will be achieved by:

• Injecting CO2 underground for long-term storage or improved oil recovery (IOR)
• Using hydroelectricity from the Norwegian grid to power installations which currently use on-site generation
• Enhancing energy efficiency.

The group is currently involved in four large-scale commercial projects on carbon  capture and storage at different levels of maturity:

• The Sleipner area in the North Sea
• The Snøhvit LNG production in northern Norway
• In Salah in Algeria
• The carbon capture facility at the Mongstad refinery, west Norwegian cost
