Feasibility & FEED>

Feasibility and FEEDFrom basin and site screening to integrated risk assessments and economics, we’ve got it covered. Add experience from more than 50 CO2 storage projects worldwide to your feasibility and FEED assessments.

Access a suite of technologies and services from plant engineering and permitting to well trajectory planning and storage site characterization.

Draw on our global experience of surface and subsurface evaluation services for your CCS projects. For more than 20 years, Schlumberger has been supporting customers with best-in-class domain science delivered through our trusted technologies.

See how we helped Clean Energy Systems complete their storage feasibility assessment for a ~300,000 tCO2/year BECCS project.

 

Capture & Compression>

Capture and  Compression Design CO2 transport and compression systems with cutting edge digital solutions to optimize the operating conditions and minimize HSE risk. Integrate pipeline, capture and compression facilities and safety models in one platform, while ensuring consistent thermodynamics and fluid characterization across the full system.

 

Transportation>

TransportationModel and simulate the transport of CO2 from the capture facility to the injection site and ensure safe operating conditions. For pipeline transportation, ensuring that the fluid is transported in the supercritical or dense phase is vital for efficiency, and temperature and pressure limits must be understood to avoid hydrate formation. Fluid composition, transport mode, capture source, climactic conditions and distance to injection site are all key parameters to consider when designing your CO2 transport system. 

 

See how we helped ADM ensure operational safety and increase the efficiency of their CO2 transport system.

 

Construction & Operations>

Construction and OperationsFrom well trajectory planning through site and operations management, our 90 years of experience in more than 180 countries, enables optimal design and execution of wells—with safety as our first priority. Meeting performance objectives, while minimizing risk and uncertainty, is central to our process for developing a specific plan for safe and effective storage. Injection wells are systems engineered with the durability to both deliver the CO2 to the storage target, and to isolate and protect the intervening formations. Our drilling and well construction services help maximize the quality and stability of wells crucial to long-term integrity.

See how we helped Shell's QUEST store over 5 million tonnes of CO2.

 

Monitoring>

MonitoringCreate a customized, cost-effective monitoring strategy for your projects. Our holistic monitoring strategy design process is built on the results of geomechanical and simulation studies for safe long-term geological storage of CO2

Schlumberger offers a wide range of physical and digital monitoring solutions, including subsurface CO2 plume migration simulation and micro-seismic monitoring to electromagnetics and non-seismic methods. 

See how we’re helping SaskPower monitor CO2 injected into the subsurface using multiple dynamic data types.

Hydrogen on the Horizon 

The world is changing rapidly, and the pandemic of 2020 has accelerated plans to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, particularly in Europe. A growing number of governments are putting “net zero” targets into law. Environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) metrics are motivating investment decisions globally.
