据海上工程师网2021年12月15日报道，挪威石油和能源部周三表示，已有5家公司申请在挪威大陆架建造二氧化碳储存设施。  

挪威石油和能源部在9月份提议，在北海和北极巴伦支海设立两个海上地区，供有意开发海底二氧化碳储存的企业使用。 二氧化碳储存是一种技术，能够捕获温室气体二氧化碳，并将其储存在地下，远离大气层。 

挪威能源部在一份声明中说，在12月9日截止日期前提出申请的5家公司分别是壳牌公司、挪威Equinor、地平线能源公司、北极光公司和瓦尔能源公司。

北极光公司是Equinor、壳牌公司和道达尔公司的合资公司，该公司已经在挪威最大的天然气田Troll附近开发了一个单独的二氧化碳储存设施。

意大利埃尼公司的挪威子公司瓦尔能源公司上周宣布，该公司将加入Equinor和地平线能源公司的一个项目，在巴伦支海开发二氧化碳储存。 

挪威石油和能源大臣Marte Mjoes Persen表示：“令人欣慰的是，这些公司对分配用于储存二氧化碳的海上地区表现出了浓厚兴趣。”

挪威政府寻求促进二氧化碳捕获和储存技术的发展，因为这可以帮助该国实现其气候目标，并支持无排放氢气和氨的生产。  

挪威能源部表示，计划在2022年上半年分配海上二氧化碳储存地区。

Five Firms Seek to Develop CO2 Storage off Norway

Five companies have applied to build carbon dioxide (CO2) storage on the Norwegian continental shelf, the country's oil and energy ministry said on Wednesday.

The ministry proposed in September two offshore areas, one in the North Sea and one in the Arctic Barents Sea, for companies interested in developing CO2 storage under the seabed. CO2 storage is technology that enables the capture of carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, and its storage underground and away from the atmosphere.

The five companies that applied by a Dec. 9 deadline were Shell, Equinor, Horizon Energy, Northern Lights, and Vaar Energi, the ministry said in a statement. 

Northern Lights is a joint venture between Equinor, Shell, and Total, which is already developing a separate CO2 storage near Norway's largest gas field, Troll.

Vaar Energi, a Norwegian subsidiary of Italy's Eni, last week announced it was joining a project by Equinor and Horisont Energi to develop a CO2 storage in the Barents Sea.

"It is gratifying that the companies are showing interest in being allocated acreage for storing CO2," Minister of Oil and Energy Marte Mjoes Persen said.

The Norwegian government seeks to promote development of CO2 capture and storage technology as it could help the country to reach its climate goals and support production of emissions-free hydrogen and ammonia.

The ministry said it planned to allocate the offshore acreage for CO2 storage in the first half of 2022.
