Industry Panel 3: Scaling Decarbonisation and CCUS: Transforming Offshore Assets for Sustainable Energy Production
As the offshore sector works to lower its carbon footprint, a growing suite of decarbonisation levers is reshaping how offshore assets operate and create value. These include gas flaring reduction and methane management, electrification and offshore power solutions, efficiency upgrades and digital optimisation, carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) opportunities, and the adoption of low-carbon fuels. This session will explore how these pathways are being deployed in practice to reduce emissions intensity while maintaining safe, reliable operations.
Building on this broader decarbonisation toolkit, the session will then focus on CCUS as a critical enabler of large-scale, durable emissions reduction, particularly for hard-to-abate offshore processes. Panellists will examine how companies are tackling the technical and economic challenges of scaling CCUS, including capture integration constraints, CO₂ transport and logistics, storage resource readiness, injection performance, and monitoring and verification requirements. The discussion will also highlight what is needed to improve the bankability and investability of offshore decarbonisation projects, including the role of technology in enhancing cost efficiency, reducing project risks, and strengthening commercial viability.
