CO2-mitigation options for the offshore oil and gas sector

François Maréchal, Tuong-Van Nguyen, Laurence Tock

The offshore extraction of oil and gas is an energy-intensive process leading to the production of CO2 and methane, discharged into the atmosphere, and of chemicals, rejected into the sea. The taxation of these emissions, in Norway, has encouraged the deve ...
