Energy and petrochemicals group ADNOC has announced a final investment decision (FID) to develop what will be one of the largest carbon capture projects in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.
Capable of capturing and storing 1.5 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) of carbon dioxide (CO2) within underground geological aquifers, the Habshan carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) project is part of ADNOC’s wider carbon management strategy.
According to ADNOC, it aims to create a platform that connects all the sources of emissions and sequestration sites to accelerate the delivery of ADNOC and the UAE’s decarbonisation goals.
This will include not only the Habshan project but also several other technology-driven pilot projects, including CO2 mineralisation and full carbon sequestration in saline aquifers.
