据海湾新闻网2023年1月17日迪拜报道,阿布扎比国家石油公司(ADNOC)将把二氧化碳放置到岩层中,这家阿联酋能源巨头将从今年1月开始在富查伊拉这样做。ADNOC将使用来自44.01能源公司的一种获奖的碳捕获和矿化技术来消除大气中的二氧化碳。
这是能源公司在中东地区的第一次这样的冒险。除了44.01能源公司,ADNOC的合作伙伴还包括富查伊拉自然资源公司和阿布扎比未来能源公司。
在这个试验中,二氧化碳将从空气中被捕获,溶解在海水中,然后注入到地下深处的橄榄岩地层中,在那里它将矿化——确保它不会再次逃逸到大气中。
ADNOC首席技术官Sophie Hildebrand表示:“我们致力于寻找新的方法来实现我们运营的脱碳,同时履行我们为世界提供重要能源的责任。”“作为中东地区第一家运营此负碳项目的能源公司,这一试点标志着我们在项目上投资150亿美元的最新一步,这些项目将减少我们的碳足迹,并帮助我们在2050年前实现净零目标。”
富查伊拉之所以被选为试点地区,是因为那里有丰富的橄榄岩,这是一种自然与二氧化碳反应使其矿化的岩石。
富查伊拉自然资源公司董事长Muhammad Saif Al Afkham说:“这里的成功可以为帮助我们在2050年前实现阿联酋净零战略倡议作出重大贡献铺平道路。”

ADNOC to be first energy company in Middle East to mineralize CO2 into rocks
Dubai: ADNOC is out to place CO2 within rock formations - and the UAE energy giant will do that in Fujairah from this month on. The company will use a ‘prize-winning’ carbon capture and mineralisation technology from 44.01 to eliminate C02 from the atmosphere.
This is the first such venture by any energy company in the Middle East. ADNOC’s partners apart from 44.01 include the Fujairah Natural Resources Corporation (FNRC), Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company (Masdar).
In this pilot, CO2 will be captured from the air, dissolved in seawater, and then injected into peridotite formations deep underground, where it will mineralize - ensuring that it cannot escape back into the atmosphere.
“We are committed to finding new ways to decarbonize our operations, while meeting our responsibility to supply vital energy to the world,” said Sophie Hildebrand, Chief Technology Officer at ADNOC. “As the first energy company in the region to run a carbon-negative project of this kind, this pilot marks the latest step in our $15 billion investment into projects that will reduce our carbon footprint and help us achieve our Net Zero by 2050 ambition.”
Fujairah was selected for this pilot due to its abundance of peridotite, a form of rock that naturally reacts with CO2 to mineralize it.
Muhammad Saif Al Afkham, Chairman of Fujairah Natural Resources Corporation, said: “Success here could pave the way to help us make a significant contribution towards the UAE Net Zero by 2050 Strategic Initiative.”
