Carbon Capture and Storage

In 2008 Ross Offshore was awarded the contract by Gassnova SF to evaluate safe permanent storage sites in the Norwegian Continental Shelf to store CO2 from the Kårstø and Mongstad gas fired power plants. The contract includes all subsurface work, subsea system and well design to reach investment decision for safe storage.

To achieve this, a highly experienced project team of geophysicists, geologists, reservoir engineers, production technologist, drilling & completion engineer and subsea engineer have been assembled. The task of the team is to deliver the whole development value chain from seismic interpretation, geo-modeling, reservoir simulation, well planning and subsea schemes.

The experience gained by Ross Offshore from this pioneering project is unique in the field of CCS and can prove to be very valuable for execution of similar projects world wide.
