As a part of the Global CCS Institute's focus on assisting CCS projects through knowledge sharing, a one-day workshop was organised in collaboration with the Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum (CSLF) to share experiences on CCS project integration, and to identify priority integration topics that need further attention to facilitate CCS project development and deployment. The workshop was held on Thursday 3 November in London.

Attendance at the event was close to 50 and represented mainly key industry players. The size of the meeting and the targeted audience allowed for open discussions on a range of technical topics related to CCS project integration, including heat integration, plant operability, environmental control, CO₂ specifications and scale-up challenges. The workshop participants also drilled into the opportunities and challenges associated with integrating the CCS chain from a commercial and management perspective. In relation to this, interesting insights were presented on the timing of storage site characterisation and issues associated with balancing transportation systems for CCS.
