Evaluation of risk assessment methodologies using the In Salah CO2 Storage Project as a case history
Evaluation of risk assessment methodologies using the In Salah CO2 Storage Project as a case history

1st September 2010

Topic(s): Carbon capture use and storage (CCUS), CO2 storage, Health safety and environment

This paper presents the results of an analysis of three risk assessment methods using the In Salah geologic carbon sequestration (GCS) project in Algeria as a backdrop. The methods assessed are the RISQUE QRA (Quantitative Risk Assessment) process, a Certification Framework developed for the CO2 Capture Project (CCP), and the Quantitative Risk Through Time Analysis (QRTT). The authors conclude that overall both CF and RISQUE QRA methodologies were consistent and provided useful insights into the In Salah project.

The natural fix? The role of ecosystems in climate mitigation
The natural fix? The role of ecosystems in climate mitigation

1st January 2009

Topic(s): Health safety and environment

Large cuts in emissions of greenhouse gases are needed if we are to avoid the worst effects of global climate change. This Rapid Assessment Report describes the vital contributions which ecosystems can and must make to improve these efforts. It presents carbon capture and storage through a Green Economy lens, outlining the potential in terms of natural systems, from forests to grasslands which have been doing the job in a tried and tested way for millennia. Currently the world's ecosystems instead of maintaining and enhancing nature's carbon capture and storage capacity, are being depleted at an alarming rate. This authoritative report, compiled for World Environment Day on 5th June, underlines a far greater potential across a wider suite of natural systems: a potential to not only combat climate change and climate-proof vulnerable economies but to also accelerate sustainable development and the achievement of the poverty related Millennium Development Goals.
