DNV has issued a Statement of Feasibility for Aker BP's and Höegh Evi's concept of injecting CO₂ directly from shuttle carriers into subsea wells for permanent storage at the Atlas project on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. The project aims to inject up to 6 million tonnes of CO₂ annually, with potential for expansion. The storage capacity is estimated at 150 million tonnes, with first injections expected around 2031.
By providing storage for captured emissions, projects like Atlas could support the decarbonization of European industries with difficult-to-avoid CO₂ emissions. DNV's assessment identified technical challenges and uncertainties but considered them manageable, confirming the concept's feasibility within the assessed scope.
