Sleipner
Project Overview
The Sleipner Project is the first large scale commercial application of carbon dioxide storage in a deep saline aquifer in the world and has been operating successfully since 1996 when Statoil began injecting CO2 separated from natural gas produced from the Sleipner West gas field into a large, deep saline formation some 800 metres below the bed of the North Sea in Norway. The project is expected to store a total of 20 million tonnes of CO2 over its lifetime. CO2 capture is done using Amine techonolgy. Injection currently costs $17 US / Tonne CO2.
