Woodside's proposed Browse field development is close to a good carbon storage zone, as are a number of other Australian oil and gas projects, according to Global CCS Institute chief executive Brad Page.
A revised project plan for Woodside's massive Browse gas field development is likely to include CO2 capture and storage at a cost of at least $100 per tonne.
Carbon capture and storage is 'out of the race' for power plants, but for some other sectors it could be useful, according to energy economist and climate policy expert Frank Jotzo.
New data from Chevron shows it risks falling millions of tonnes short of a mandatory requirement to abate greenhouse gas emissions from its Gorgon LNG project.
LNG company Inpex has told the Productivity Commission it's not cost effective to sequester its emissions unless there's a carbon price of $100 in place, while Adani has called for more restrictions on public access to documents.
In a milestone development, Chevron Australia today announced it has started operating what will be the world's largest sequestration project of its type at its Gorgon LNG plant.
Shell designed-out the possibility of a carbon capture unit on its Prelude floating LNG operation, despite saying it would keep space available for it, new documents show.
