CO2 Transport and Storage Availability

Overview

High availability of CO2 Transportation and Storage networks will be essential for maximising the benefits of Carbon Capture Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) systems, and are an important aspect of commercial contracts between emitters and T&S operators. Planned or unexpected downtime in the T&S system has implications for the emitters, both commercially and potentially environmentally if they need to vent CO2 to the atmosphere. There may also be venting/outage challenges when crossing state or national borders.

The objective of this study is to investigate realistic rates of CO2 Transport and Storage operational availability that may be achievable for future systems, with a focus primarily on pipeline transportation and storage within sedimentary basins (saline aquifers and depleted fields). This study was undertaken by TNO with SINTEF and SCCS.

CO2 Transport and Storage Cost Review

  • 9 October 2025
  • Costs of CCUS
  • Storage
  • Transport

The objective of the study was to review publicly available information on CO2 transport and storage (T&S) costs, to provide insights into how typical cost estimates are built up and to inform on areas of risk. Current information on T&S costs and the need for new or improved data would be explored.

CO2 Flow Metering Technologies

  • 4 September 2025
  • Policy & Regulation
  • Transport

The main objective of this study is to raise awareness of the relevance, state of the art, challenges and opportunities of flow metering for carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS). Flow metering of CO2 streams will be critical in supporting trade, protecting consumers, ensuring confidence, facilitating taxation, and meeting CO2 reduction goals and treaty obligations.

Insurance Coverage for CO₂ Storage Projects

  • 16 August 2024
  • Industry Insights
  • Storage

This report is a focused review of recent developments regarding insurance coverage for carbon dioxide (CO₂) geological storage projects. It seeks to address the following: what companies are offering or planning to offer insurance to CO₂ storage projects, what is the scope and duration of the coverage offered, and does coverage extend to the transportation of CO₂ to the project site? This work and report was prepared by Franz Hiebert.
