If Chevron, Exxon and Shell can’t get carbon capture right at Gorgon,
who can? At a cost of more than $3 billion, Gorgon, the largest carbon
capture and storage (CCS) project in the world has failed to deliver,
underperforming its targets for the first five years of operation by about
50%. Carbon capture technology has historically been used as a method of
enhanced oil recovery – selling captured carbon dioxide to oil companies
to push more oil out of depleted wells, making any initial “carbon
capture” negligible.
