據(jù)世界天然氣網(wǎng)2月28日消息 澳大利亞能源巨頭桑托斯與韓國綠色能源公司SK E&S合作開展碳捕獲和儲存（CCS）項目。

桑托斯、SK E&S、K-CCUS協(xié)會、CO2CRC和韓國貿(mào)易保險公司簽署了一份諒解備忘錄（MoU），以支持和合作開發(fā)二氧化碳儲存設(shè)施。

雙方同意在澳大利亞和該地區(qū)共同開發(fā)CCS項目，包括在東帝汶的巴尤恩丹。

巴尤翁丹的CCS將具有每年儲存約1000萬噸二氧化碳的潛在能力。

桑托斯首席執(zhí)行官凱文·加拉赫表示，該協(xié)議突顯了亞太地區(qū)減少碳排放的增長勢頭和行動。增加CCS的部署對于實現(xiàn)世界氣候目標(biāo)至關(guān)重要。

“該協(xié)議為澳大利亞和韓國在CCS方面建立更廣泛的雙邊伙伴關(guān)系和合作開辟了可能性。該協(xié)議已經(jīng)成為巴羅薩天然氣項目和達(dá)爾文液化天然氣項目的合作伙伴，進(jìn)一步加強(qiáng)了SK E&S和桑托斯之間深入且不斷擴(kuò)大的關(guān)系?！?/p>

加拉赫表示，在該地區(qū)合作推進(jìn)CCS項目，是通往低排放未來的一條路徑。

Santos and SK to work on CCS projects in Australia

Australian energy giant Santos has teamed up with South Korea’s green energy company SK E&S on carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects.

Santos, SK E&S, K-CCUS Association, CO2CRC, and Korea Trade Insurance Corporation have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to support and collaborate in the development of CO2 storage facilities.

Therefore, the parties agreed to jointly develop CCS projects in Australia and the region, including Bayu-Undan in Timor Leste.

CCS at Bayu-Undan would have the potential capacity to store approximately 10 million tonnes of CO2 a year.

Santos CEO Kevin Gallagher said the deal highlights growing momentum and action to reduce carbon emissions in the Asia Pacific. “Increased deployment of CCS is critical to achieve the world’s climate goals.”

“This agreement opens the potential for broader bilateral partnership and cooperation on CCS between Australia and Korea. Already partners in the Barossa Gas Project and Darwin LNG, the agreement further strengthens the deep and expanding relationship between SK E&S and Santos.”

He also added that progressing this partnership with CCS projects in the region is a path to a lower-emissions future.
