In May 2022, JOGMEC has published the first version of a “Recommended guideline for the implementation of Carbon dioxide Capture and Storage Projects (CCS guideline)”. This guideline aims to promote CCS business and assert the view of JOGMEC on CCS business.

JOGMEC has developed an operator-friendly guideline to support CCS deployment that contains recommended workflows from project planning to project closure as well as standards for evaluating CO2 storage resources and the amount of greenhouse gas reduction. The next step will be to study methodologies to quantify the amount of CO2 storage through CO2-EOR (enhanced oil recovery by carbon dioxide injection). It is believed that ’harmonisation’ is the key to the successful CCS deployment throughout Asia. JOGMEC aims to play a role in creating harmony among multiple stakeholders, to achieve CCS deployment in Asia, and the CCS guideline is one of the instruments we will use to achieve this goal.

The Global CCS Institute’s 10th Annual D.C. Forum, hosted on 16 June, brought together the carbon capture and storage industry to address the rapidly evolving interplays of policy, finance, technology, and justice. The Institute’s CEO Jarad Daniels commenced the day-long conference by reminding the audience of the organisation’s vision, that CCS is an integral part of the net-zero emissions future, and its mission, to accelerate the global deployment of CCS. Jarad emphasised the Institute’s five-year plan with the objectives of fact-based influential advocacy, catalytic thought leadership, and authoritative knowledge sharing.
