Course overview
Carbon capture, utilisation and storage is expected to play an important role in decarbonising heavy industry, power and the oil and gas sector. Oil and gas companies bring relevant skills in subsurface, wells, pipelines and large projects, making CCUS a major growth area.
This Aractech course covers capture technologies, CO2 transport, geological storage, monitoring and verification, utilisation options, regulation, project economics and business models. Participants evaluate CCUS project concepts and understand the technical and commercial risks involved.
The course provides a balanced, practical view suitable for engineers, managers and policy professionals.
