What is the CCSA?
It is:A Business Association formed in the UK to represent the interests of its members in the development of business in geo-CCS wherever opportunities may exist.
It is not:A technical forum, a
professional institute or an environmental or climate campaign group.
Summary of activities
•Recognise CCS in EU ETS•Establish M&V protocol•Establish licensing procedures•Ensure capacity in New Entrant Reserve•Meanwhile establish CDM position & methodology•Bridging incentives for early projects• Health, Safety & Environment

CO2 v Nat Gas in NTS • NG pressure up to 86 bar, CO2 70 -140 bar• Density CO2 ~ 700 kg/m3• In 2004 - 81 Mt NG transported, 334k t/day• 8600 km NTS pipework• 500 MW power plant – 1-2 CO2 Mt pa • 50 – 500 km pipelines ( few to 200 km onshore )• Current NTS transports a mass ~ roughly same as that
that could be captured from all power plant
What’s new about CCS?
• Big volumes CO2 produced on land and transported long distances•Integrating chemical & power plant• Large volumes of some chemicals•Handling high pressure supercritical CO2 •Permanent storage of large volumes of CO2•Requires a new infrastructure
What experience is there already?
• Capture of CO2 from flue gas / nat gas• Large scale CO2 pipeline transportation – US 3000 km• Injection CO2 > 1Mt pa , Sleipner, In Salah, US > 40 Mt pa• CO2 in nat gas, considerable operating experience - well control, blowouts, corrosion issues• Handling of amines and other capture chemicals
Standards
• UK – no standards specific to CO2 pipes – standards for other gases applied• Standards exist for sub-critical tank storage CO2• US – DOT code Pt 195 Transportation of Hazardous Liquids by Pipeline:-Specifically covers safety standards, reporting, - high pressure CO2, includes specs for pipeline material, laying, valves, venting, handling and pumping etc.
Health & Environment I
• CO2 health effects well understood• Chemicals covered by COSHH regs• Dispersion of CO2 from high pressure pipelines or tanks less information for risk analysis-Solid and gas phases on decompression- high energy release- Cold dense gas• Materials failure due to CO2 corrosion
Health & Environment II
•Safety of controlled releases e.g pipeline purge•Impurities with CO2 e.g. H2S• CO2 migration to potable ground water-Deep injection into saline aquifers ( onshore )-Risks low of upwards migration• Onshore geo-injection legislation not specific to CO2• Leakage risk assessment methodology

R&D • EU Framework 6&7 programmes
- HSE issues covered in many projects-Zero Emissions Technology Platform –HSE issues identified for FP7•CCP oil company led consortium•CCSA members R&D programmes•US EPRI, DoE • IEA Greenhouse Gas R&D programme• UK Research Councils
Gaps Summary
• Regulatory & legal framework• Safety standards for pipelines, facilities• H&S of sc CO2 releases• Environmental effects – CO2 geological migration• Risk assessment methodology for leakage from storage site
Way Forward
• Regulators work with Industry• Look for, learn from or use existing best practice • Adapt to the UK situation• Build on existing UK practices and guidance• Learn by doing - ‘first of a kind’ projects give a focus for HS&E work
