Carbon capture, utilisation and storage
Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) plays a key role in achieving net zero. With a big portfolio of successfully completed projects, Ramboll is a leading advisor in this fast-growing industry.
The path to decarbonisation runs through carbon capture
: >180Ramboll has worked on more than 180 carbon capture projects and more than 210 successful green hydrogen projects.
carbon capture projects
CCUS is one of the few technology options that can significantly reduce direct CO2 emissions (including process emissions) from the industry sector, which produces one-quarter of global CO2 emissions
We provide a unique mix of technical and commercial advisory which is essential for successful CCUS projects
- Project development: Ramboll knows and understands the carbon and energy market trends, drivers, challenges, business models, and prerequisites for operational excellence. We offer strategic and commercial expertise to enable successful execution of CCUS projects, including the development of road maps, go-to-market strategies, business cases, and market sizing
- Outline design: We have comprehensive experience with carbon capture design, integration, and cost, which is essential for a successful CCUS project. We have experience with all facets of carbon capture, including amine capture, oxyfuel, membrane, cryo, chilled ammonia, HPC, PSA, CO2 compression, CO2 pipeline, storage, loading, and liquefaction
- Permitting: We provide our clients with support in obtaining permits and maintaining compliance and are well-versed in the various issues unique to CCUS, including air quality, risk management, ESG strategies, and decarbonisation strategies.
- Procurement: During the procurement process, we act as the clients’ Owner’s Engineer/ EPCM, where Ramboll is responsible for contract and project management of the EPC project. Moreover, we are highly skilled with Engineering of Balance of Plant (BOP) and design review of the carbon capture plant.
- Implementation: Ramboll masters all the technical disciplines associated with the design, construction and operation of carbon capture facilities including contract management.
