据离岸工程网站8月17日消息 周二，英力士能源、温特沙尔和一个由29家公司、研究机构和大学组成的财团签署了一项协议，支持下一阶段的Greensand试点项目，以证明在丹麦近海北海的海上水库中安全、永久地储存二氧化碳。
该项目需要通过船舶将二氧化碳输送至丹麦附近的Nini West水库，并通过海上井口平台注入。二氧化碳将储存在海底1500米以下的枯竭油气砂岩储层中，现有基础设施将从油气生产改为二氧化碳注入。
根据2020年12月《丹麦北海协议》中概述的协议的实施情况，目前正在进行概念验证规划，可能在2021年第4季度左右开始。
Greensand财团现在将向丹麦的能源技术开发和示范项目提交一份赠款申请。如果申请成功，财团的目标是在2021年底开始工作，海上注入试验将在2022年底进行。
丹麦国家元首、商业总监Mads Weng Gade表示：“我们正在一步一步地采取行动。我们现在已经成立了财团，如果我们能够成功地获得丹麦政府和咨询委员会的持续支持，Greensand将能够在支持丹麦气候战略方面迈出另一重要的一步。”
丹麦议会绝大多数成员于2020年12月决定设立一个特别资金池，以支持丹麦二氧化碳封存试点项目，旨在调查丹麦北海水库与二氧化碳的相互作用。这一试点项目如果设计正确，将成为到2025年实现二氧化碳封存的决策基础。

Consortium of 29 Firms Backs Danish Carbon Capture and Storage Project
INEOS Energy, Wintershall Dea, and a consortium of 29 companies, research institutes, and universities, align="justify"> The project entails transporting CO2 by ship to the Nini West reservoir off Denmark and injecting it via the offshore wellhead platform. The CO2 will be stored in depleted oil and gas sandstone reservoirs 1500m beneath the seabed and existing infrastructure will be repurposed from oil and gas production to CO2 injection.
Proof of concept planning is now getting underway with potentially start around Q4 2021 subject to the implementation of the agreements outlined in the Danish North Sea Agreement of Dec. 2020.
The Greensand consortium will now file a grant application with the Energy Technology Development and Demonstration Program in Denmark. If the application is successful the consortium targets the start of work by the end of 2021, with the offshore injection pilot taking place in late 2022.
Mads Weng Gade, Head of Country, Denmark and Commercial Director INEOS Energy said: "We are taking this step by step. We now have the consortium in place, and if we are successful in receiving align="justify"> A large majority of the Danish Parliament decided in December 2020 to set aside a special funding pool to support a Danish CO2 storage pilot project, aiming to investigate the reservoir-CO2 interaction in the Danish North Sea. This pilot project, if designed correctly, could form the basis for a decision, to enable CO2 storage by 2025.
