Download or read book US Policy Shift to Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage CCUS Driven by Carbon Dioxide Enhanced Oil Recovery written by The Atlantic Council and published by . This book was released on 2012-09-21 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the absence of US legislative action on climate policy, there has been a shift in US policy emphasis from carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology to CCUS with the 'U' for 'utilization' for EOR. Although there are many uses for carbon dioxide, the primary utilization opportunity in the United States is enhanced oil recovery. Currently, CO2-EOR offers the only significant price signal for carbon, and it provides the nation's most viable commercial CCUS pathway, increasing domestic oil production and helping to revitalize the US economy. The report states that the extent to which CO2-EOR will be leveraged for wide-scale CCUS deployment depends largely on how the CO2-EOR market develops and on what type of policy actions are taken to incentivize CO2 capture.

Download or read book The Business Case for Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage written by Atlantic Council and published by . This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond generating domestic economic activity, CO2 enhanced oil recovery (CO2-EOR) can boost domestic oil production and limit CO2 emissions. However, the selection of a CCUS business model will be based on many factors, including: type of CO2-emitting facility; power market; CO2 demand and market price; distance to CO2-EOR or storage site;CO2 pipeline and transport infrastructure requirements; and internal engineering, design, and construction capabilities.The report concludes that CO2-capture costs must be driven to business-case economics and that the cost gap between the market price for CO2 and the price CO2-EOR operators are willing to pay must be closed in order to leverage wide-scale CCUS deployment.
Download or read book Cutting Edge Technology for Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage written by Karine Ballerat-Busserolles and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-04-20 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compiled from a conference on this important subject by three of the most well-known and respected editors in the industry, this volume provides some of the latest technologies related to carbon capture, utilization and, storage (CCUS). Of the 36 billon tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) being emitted into Earth's atmosphere every year, only 40 million tons are able to be captured and stored. This is just a fraction of what needs to be captured, if this technology is going to make any headway in the global march toward reversing, or at least reducing, climate change. CO2 capture and storage has long been touted as one of the leading technologies for reducing global carbon emissions, and, even though it is being used effectively now, it is still an emerging technology that is constantly changing. This volume, a collection of papers presented during the Cutting-Edge Technology for Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CETCCUS), held in Clermont-Ferrand, France in the fall of 2017, is dedicated to these technologies that surround CO2 capture. Written by some of the most well-known engineers and scientists in the world on this topic, the editors, also globally known, have chosen the most important and cutting-edge papers that address these issues to present in this groundbreaking new volume, which follows their industry-leading series, Advances in Natural Gas Engineering, a seven-volume series also available from Wiley-Scrivener. With the ratification of the Paris Agreement, many countries are now committing to making real progress toward reducing carbon emissions, and this technology is, as has been discussed for years, one of the most important technologies for doing that. This volume is a must-have for any engineer or scientist working in this field.

The five chapters in this volume address the capture, transport, geologic storage, enhanced oil recovery, and use of CO2. These chapters provide supporting data and analyses for the findings and recommendations presented in the Executive Summary. Appendices in this volume provide additional background material on CO2 capture and enhanced oil recovery. Additional study materials include Volume I - Report Summary, Volume II - Analysis of CCUS Deployment At-Scale, and additional resources available at the study's website (dualchallenge.npc.org). The National Petroleum Council (NPC), a federally chartered and privately funded advisory committee, was established by the Secretary of the Interior in 1946 at the request of President Harry S Truman. In 1977, the U.S. Department of Energy was established, and the NPC's functions were transferred to the new Department. The purpose of the NPC is solely to advise, inform, and make recommendations to the Secretary of Energy with respect to any matter relating to oil and natural gas or to the oil and gas industries submitted to it or approved by the Secretary. The NPC does not concern itself with trade practices, nor does it engage in any of the usual trade association activities.

Download or read book Forecasting CO2 Sequestration with Enhanced Oil Recovery written by William Ampomah and published by Mdpi AG. This book was released on 2022-12-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is to reduce the amount of CO2 released into the atmosphere and to mitigate its effects on climate change. Over the years, naturally occurring CO2 sources have been utilized in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) projects in the United States. This has presented an opportunity to supplement and gradually replace the high demand for natural CO2 sources with anthropogenic sources. There also exist incentives for operators to become involved in the storage of anthropogenic CO2 within partially depleted reservoirs, in addition to the incremental production oil revenues. These incentives include a wider availability of anthropogenic sources, the reduction of emissions to meet regulatory requirements, tax incentives in some jurisdictions, and favorable public relations. The United States Department of Energy has sponsored several Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnerships (RCSPs) through its Carbon Storage program which have conducted field demonstrations for both EOR and saline aquifer storage. Various research efforts have been made in the area of reservoir characterization, monitoring, verification and accounting, simulation, and risk assessment to ascertain long-term storage potential within the subject storage complex. This book is a collection of lessons learned through the RCSP program within the Southwest Region of the United States. The scope of the book includes site characterization, storage modeling, monitoring verification reporting (MRV), risk assessment and international case studies.
Download or read book Carbon Capture and Sequestration written by M. Granger Morgan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-31 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States produces over seventy percent of all its electricity from fossil fuels and nearly fifty percent from coal alone. Worldwide, forty-one percent of all electricity is generated from coal, making it the single most important fuel source for electricity generation, followed by natural gas. This means that an essential part of any portfolio for emissions reduction will be technology to capture carbon dioxide and permanently sequester it in suitable geologic formations. While many nations have incentivized development of CCS technology, large regulatory and legal barriers exist that have yet to be addressed. This book identifies current law and regulation that applies to geologic sequestration in the U.S., the regulatory needs to ensure that geologic sequestration is carried out safely and effectively, and barriers that current law and regulation present to timely deployment of CCS. The authors find the three most significant barriers to be: an ill-defined process to access pore space in deep saline formations; a piecemeal, procedural, and static permitting system; and the lack of a clear, responsible plan to address long-term liability associated with sequestered CO2. The book provides legislative options to remove these barriers and address the regulatory needs, and makes recommendations on the best options to encourage safe, effective deployment of CCS. The authors operationalize their recommendations in legislative language, which is of particular use to policymakers faced with the challenge of addressing climate change and energy.

This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CO2 capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technology has yet to be widely deployed at a commercial scale despite multiple high-profile demonstration projects. We suggest that developing a large-scale, visible, and financially viable CCUS network could potentially overcome many barriers to deployment and jumpstart commercial-scale CCUS. To date, substantial effort has focused on technology development to reduce the costs of CO2 capture from coal-fired power plants. Here, we propose that near-term investment could focus on implementing CO2 capture on facilities that produce high-value chemicals/products. These facilities can absorb the expected impact of the marginal increase in the cost of production on the price of their product, due to the addition of CO2 capture, more than coal-fired power plants. A financially viable demonstration of a large-scale CCUS network requires offsetting the costs of CO2 capture by using the CO2 as an input to the production of market-viable products. As a result, we demonstrate this alternative development path with the example of an integrated CCUS system where CO2 is captured from ethylene producers and used for enhanced oil recovery in the U.S. Gulf Coast region.
