Special Issue on “Offshore Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage”
Climate change, caused by anthropogenic CO2 and other greenhouse gas emissions, is one of the most urgent and extensive global threats confronting us today. The need to reduce emissions rapidly has prompted a growing interest in CO2 capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS). However, there are many technical and non-technical challenges associated with implementing CCUS technologies, particularly offshore. These include issues associated with long-term liabilities, various engineering and ecological concerns, as well as public acceptance. The offshore CCUS industry has been actively implementing several actions aiming at preventing anthropogenic CO2 from entering into the atmosphere and more need to continue being implemented.
