Considering leak detection systems for carbon capture and storage (CCS)

At COP26 countries were asked to come forward with ambitious 2030 reduction targets that align with meeting net zero emissions by the middle of the century (UK COP). Governments have also agreed to keep global warming well below 2C and make efforts to keep it to 1.5C. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is going to play an important role in decarbonizing the energy industry and capturing the carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere to meet these targets.

Pipelines are crucial to this shift, as the cheapest way of transporting CO2 in large quantities. This paper looks at some of the key trends in CCS and why leak detection systems (LDS) are crucial for mitigating the risks associated with a leak or rupture on a CO2 pipeline.
