据烃加工新闻3月3日消息称,日本贸易公司三井株式会社表示,将在英国投资开发一个碳捕捉和储存(CCS)项目。
这家日本公司将持有Storegga Geotechnologies公司15.4%的股份,该公司正在开发Acorn CCS项目,该项目将在枯竭的北海油气储层中储存二氧化碳排放。
CCS捕获排放并将其埋在地下,但尚未进入商业化阶段。
该项目由Storegga Geotechnologies的全资子公司Pale Blue Dot Energy牵头,麦格理集团持有21.5%的股权,新加坡主权财富基金GIC持有15.4%的股权。
该项目预计将于本世纪20年代中期投入运营,并将捕集圣费尔格斯天然气终端34万吨二氧化碳排放量中的一部分。
那里还将有一个将北海天然气转化为氢气的项目,二氧化碳排放将被CCS捕获。氢气将用于交通运输,以及用于家庭和工业供暖的脱碳天然气电网。

Japan's Mitsui to invest in UK carbon capture project
Japanese trading house Mitsui & Co Ltd said it would invest in the development of a carbon capture and storage (CCS) project in Britain.
The Japanese company will take a 15.4% share in Storegga Geotechnologies which is developing the Acorn CCS project to store carbon dioxide emissions in depleted North Sea oil and gas reservoirs.
CCS traps emissions and buries them underground but is not yet at the commercialisation stage.
The project is being led by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Storegga Geotechnologies, Pale Blue Dot Energy, with support from Macquarie Group with a 21.5% shareholding and Singapore sovereign wealth fund GIC with a 15.4% shareholding.
The project is expected to be operational by the mid-2020s and will capture some of the 340,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions at the St Fergus gas terminal.
There will also be a project there to convert North Sea natural gas into hydrogen and the CO2 emissions will be captured by CCS. The hydrogen will be used in transport applications, and in gas grids to decarbonise heating in homes and industries.
