Carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) in hydrocarbon exploration and production
Abstract
Carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) can make a big contribution to emission reductions and help many countries to achieve net zero emission goal. The oil industry is the largest consumer of CO2 from external sources. In oil and gas exploration and production, using CO2 to enhance oil recovery (CO2-EOR) has been applied for decades and can improve oil production in the later stages of the reservoir, beyond achievable by conventional recovery methods.
The article summarises the current implementation status of CCUS projects in the world as well as in Vietnam and gives some recommendations on the CCUS implementation in oil and gas exploration and production in Vietnam.
