Carbon Capture and Storage - Fiona Smelt, TUV NEL
CCS - capture, transportation and storage of CO2. CCS is a limiting measure to help address climate change. CCS has been used historically for enhancing oil recovery where it is injected into oil formations to help extract oil. CCS is predicted to become a compulsory feature of all new combustion installations. Estimated Global Capacity of CO2 Storage Options (GT). Main CCS Drivers: Environmental, Government Direction, Financial Incentive, Technological Advances. Considerations and Challenges for Metering. Consideration of CO2 Properties. Consideration of Legislation. Consideration of Meter Selection Issues and Challenges.
Semi-Portable Equipment for Offshore Testing - Rogan Stewart, Shell (UK) Ltd
“Semi-portable equipment is described as equipment that may be made up of several modules, each of which must be hand transportable. The system may be mains driven and / or employ compressed gases (or chemical reagents) that would not be accepted for transport by helicopter." Offshore Emissions Monitoring Guide - Prepared for the DTI by AEA Technology. Procedures for Portable and Semi-Portable, Testing and Advantages.
