According to news from the offshore engineering website on August 17, Ineos Energy, Wintershall and a consortium of 29 companies, research institutions and universities signed an agreement to support the next phase of Greensand pilot project to prove the safe and permanent storage of carbon dioxide in offshore reservoirs in the North Sea offshore Denmark
.

The project needs to transport carbon dioxide by ship to the Nini West Reservoir near Denmark and inject it through an offshore wellhead platform
.

Carbon dioxide will be stored in depleted oil and gas sandstone reservoirs 1,500 meters below the sea floor, and the existing infrastructure will be changed from oil and gas production to carbon dioxide injection

According to the implementation of the agreement outlined in the "Danish North Sea Agreement" in December 2020, a proof-of-concept plan is currently underway and may begin around the fourth quarter of 2021
.

The Greensand consortium will now submit a grant application to the Danish energy technology development and demonstration project
.

If the application is successful, the consortium’s goal is to start work at the end of 2021, and the offshore injection test will be carried out at the end of 2022

The Danish Head of State and Commercial Director Mads Weng Gade said: “We are taking action step by step
.

We have now established a consortium.

The vast majority of the members of the Danish Parliament decided in December 2020 to establish a special funding pool to support the Danish carbon dioxide storage pilot project, which aims to investigate the interaction between the Danish North Sea Reservoir and carbon dioxide
.

If this pilot project is designed correctly, it will become the basis for decision-making to achieve carbon dioxide storage by 2025
