Viking CCS

What are some of the strengths of the #VikingCCS project? 🏗 It will re-use existing infrastructure 👷♀️ It will be developed by a highly experienced team 🔟 It aims to store 10 million tonnes of CO2 a year by 2030

#DYK that the Committee for Climate Change stated in 2022 that there is no route to net zero by 2050, nor decarbonising industry while safeguarding jobs, without deploying CCS at scale? #VikingCCS will help accelerate progress, with the project aiming to store 10 million tonnes of CO2 a year by 2030.

We are dedicated to capturing, transporting and storing CO2 at scale so the UK can: 🌳Achieve net zero by 2050 💥Enhance energy security 📈Grow long-term as a low carbon economy

At #VikingCCS, we can drive the decarbonisation of our Cluster members' businesses and industry. This is: ✅ Great for the future ✅ Great for jobs ✅ Great for the wider community Learn more about our benefits:

What is Carbon Capture & Storage? 💡CCS involves capturing CO2 that would otherwise be emitted into the atmosphere and transporting it via a pipeline to a secure underground storage site beneath the seabed. ⚒️ Our #VikingCCS project will play a significant part in enabling the UK to be a world-leader in this vital decarbonisation technology. 📚 Read more about our project:

We aim to safely, securely and cost-effectively capture, transport and store 10 million tonnes of UK emissions per year by 2030. This will help the UK reach its #NetZero goals ✅💪 Discover more about how we will store the captured CO2 here:

#VikingCCS project director, Graeme Davies, spoke to The Times last month about the project and its strengths, including: ➡Our strategic location near the Humber industrial area ➡Our geological advantages: an independently verified CO2 storage capacity of up to 300 million tonnes, capped with a salt 'super-seal' ➡Our track record and experience: both with the Viking field, and other infrastructure projects Read the full article below 👇

Our #VikingCCS project plans to capture and store up to 10 million tonnes of CO2 a year by 2030. Together with our members, we will make a big contribution to the UK's #CCUS target of 20-30 million tonnes per year by 2030 🌍 Find out more below: 

Infrastructure is the key that will unlock #NetZero for the UK. That’s why the #VikingCCS cluster is leading the way, with apprentice investment for the #Humber. The planned National #NetZero Training Centre Expansion, delivered with CATCH, will help to achieve this through: 🛠 The UK’s first outdoor groundworks pipe welding facility 🛠 160 welding bays 🛠 A welding and fabrication hub Find out more about how the plans will deliver 1,000 new learners per year by 2029: https://lnkd.in/gHVyPMWv

Great to join the panel and discuss how the Viking CCS project will capture, transport and store CO2 safely, securely and cost effectively. We also talked about the role the project can play in supporting the UK in reaching #netzero. You can read more about the Viking CCS project here: https://lnkd.in/ex6kRxj7
