Industry: CCUS

ADI Analytics launched a multi-client study on Natural Climate Solutions (NCS), covering market trends, policy developments, stakeholder analysis, key challenges, emerging solutions, and strategic implications for industry participants. Below are the key topics covered in the study: We welcome you to join this study. As a subscriber, you’ll have multiple options to customize your access […]

ADI Analytics launched a multi-client study on Future of Direct Air Capture (DAC), offering key insights for technology providers, operators, and investors. The study covers market outlook through 2030, policies, funding, technologies, project activity, and strategic considerations in this emerging carbon removal sector. Below are the key topics covered in the study: We welcome you […]

One of the biggest challenges to direct air capture (DAC) has been the costs, as discussed in our previous blog that can be found here. Notable interest in carbon capture and DAC from both the public and private sector are providing new funding and incentives to promote the advancement of these technologies. Numerous projects are […]

As the world moves to a more sustainable future and is advancing ways to reduce greenhouse gases and limit the effects of climate change, direct air capture (DAC) is one process being developed and deployed to remove CO2 from the atmosphere along with other efforts to reduce emissions. This industry is still in its infancy […]

Numerous companies are making net-zero pledges, with over 30% of the world’s largest companies committing to become net-zero in the coming decades. Some commitments are more ambitious than net-zero, such as Microsoft’s pledge to offset all their carbon emissions since its inception. One of the most affordable and easily accessible ways to achieve these promises […]

Oil and gas companies are making decarbonization commitments that include mainly cutting Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions although they are under growing pressure to also cut Scope 3 emissions.  To this end, there is growing interest in understanding and benchmarking GHG emissions across the value chain from exploration and production through […]

The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) offers tax credits to advance clean-energy initiatives and reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. While there are incentives for everything from carbon capture through electric vehicles to renewable energy and hydrogen production, there are some penalties. The federal government’s first-ever greenhouse gas (GHG) emission fee is part of the new law’s […]

Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is a complex value chain that requires progress in each segment to enable a global energy transition successfully. The four segments of the CCUS value chain, capture, transportation, storage, and use- are seeing varying level of progress. Capture should work more efficiently with power plants, and their CO-concentrated streams […]

On August 16 the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) was signed into law by President Joe Biden, and is touted as the “largest federal investment” in clean energy and climate legislation history.  A key target for $369 billion of the IRA investment is reduction of CO2 emissions of 40% below 2005 levels by 2030. Although there […]

At the 2022 ADI Forum, Joe Gentry, VP of Licensing at GTC Vorro, discussed the differences between U.S. and European regulatory adoption during the Midstream and NGL panel. He challenged the overemphasis on CO2 as a pollutant, arguing that other emissions, such as H2S contributing to SO2 pollution, posed greater health risks. While many companies […]

Amine-based solvents are the main technology for industrial CO2 capture, but alternatives exist. ADI is studying the development of these non-amine technologies as CCS grows, implying potential benefits over current methods.

Leading operators such as Chevron, ExxonMobil, and Phillips 66 have announced CCS projects across the oil & gas value chain.
