A barrier to effective large-scale deployment of CCS is the need for recognised standards and guidelines that can support the implementation of CCS in compliance with emerging regulatory frameworks. DNV is committed to closing this gap and developing guidelines for critical parts of the CCS value chain.
We have developed several widely adopted industry guidelines and recommended practices through joint projects with industry, and we continue to lead the development of further practices.
Enabling CO2 flow metering performance assessments and qualification, building the world-first proven reference network of facilities for testing and calibration along the entire CO2 value chain.
Investigating the integrity of carbon dioxide pipelines subjected to hydrogen sulfide from the carbon dioxide stream for carbon capture and storage applications.
Reducing the risks and uncertainties related to the design, construction and operation of a low-pressure CO2 ship transport chain.
DNV has worked with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) to build and deliver three standards related to CCS activity:
