40 billion tons CO2 per year
50 million tons CO2 per year
6 tons CO2 per year per person

Post-Combustion Capture
IS UNDEGROUND STORAGE OF CO2 SAFE?
1.Climate protection: ‘Putting CO2 in deep geological
formations is a lot safer and better than putting the same
CO2 into the atmosphere.’
2.Physical basis: ‘CO2 is trapped in microscopic rock pores
by the same process that has trapped natural gas for
millions of years.’
3.Operational experience: ‘We know from 20+ years of
operations at Sleipner and elsewhere that CCS works.’
4.Geophysical monitoring: ‘We can see where the CO2 is
(with some uncertainty) and show it is safely stored in
the intended reservoir unit.’
5.Regulatory compliance: ‘We can demonstrate regulatory
conformance with the Norwegian and EU CO2 storage
directives.’
