Can carbon storage succeed without petroleum engineering?

The number of pledges to develop carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects has increased dramatically in the last few years. But with so many projects being developed in parallel in an industry that is still very young, the industry needs to learn fast. Properly applying storage evaluation tech reduces subsurface uncertainty significantly and improves a project’s overall chance of success. To do so efficiently and achieve the net-zero contributions CCS is expected to make, project developers are turning more and more to those who have decades of experience deep underground: oil and gas experts.
