Pipelines and other midstream components hold pivotal, if largely unheralded roles in the ambitious objective of eventually ridding the world of greenhouse gas (GHS) emissions, especially when it comes to carbon capture and storage initiatives, according to Wood Mackenzie. "Midstream companies are well-placed to play a significant role in the full carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) value chain," said Rachel Schelble, the consultancy's head of corporate carbon management and infrastructure. "First and foremost, operators can capture carbon dioxide (CO2) at their own facilities. Firms can also employ their expertise to build, own and operate greenfield infrastructure. And by developing sequestration partnerships they can ensure captured carbon is either used or stored permanently." |
