Geological Storage of Carbon DioxideThis report looks at the factors governing the best assurance of safe and secure geologic storage. This includes a project that is well designed and conducted properly and carefully. More detailed explanations, including questions to ask about proposed projects to ensure that they are being conducted properly are available in this booklet. |

Ocean Storage of CO2IEA GHG undertook a series of expert workshops that examined the state of knowledge about CO2 injection in the deep ocean. This report reviews the results of these workshops. It considers what research is needed to ensure that sufficient information becomes available to understand the potential benefits and consequences of ocean storage of CO2. |
