Aker Carbon Capture is a partner in Denmark’s Greensand CO2 transport and storage project, which today announced the formation of a strong industry consortium to drive forward one of Europe’s leading CO2 infrastructure projects.

Aker Carbon Capture supports the development of carbon capture

“Open access infrastructure for CO2 transport and storage is essential to meeting the Paris Agreement, and Aker Carbon Capture is proud to support national infrastructure projects with its capabilities and experience,” says Henrik Madsen, President of Aker Carbon.

Aker Carbon also states that the Greensand project could be a catalyst for sustainable Danish industry.
This, by offering CO2 storage and a strong common European drive towards Net Zero.

30 partner entities

Aker Carbon is supporting the Greensand project as one of 30 Danish and international companies and research institutes that have joined forces to carry out a pilot project.
The project, which is led by Ineos Oil & Gas and Wintershall DEA, aims to demonstrate that CO2 can be injected into the Nini West reservoir, offshore Denmark, and to support the deployment of cost-effective, environmentally safe monitoring technologies.

“New cost-effective CO2 storage capacities are an important decarbonization factor for our customers. Through our Danish entity, Aker Carbon Capture Denmark, we are well positioned to serve not only the growing CCS market in Denmark, but also to accelerate other markets in Europe,” says Jon Christopher Knudsen, Commercial Director of Aker Carbon Capture.

The project will serve as the basis for a decision to allow CO2 storage as early as 2025, making Greensand one of Europe’s leading CO2 storage projects.
