中国石化新闻网讯 据离岸工程网10月27日报道，石油和天然气巨头壳牌（Shell）已与文莱和新加坡签署协议，研究碳运输和储存方案，这可能会成为东南亚潜在碳捕获和储存（CCS）中心的一部分。
壳牌公司的目标是到2035年达到每年至少2500万吨的CCS产能，到2050年成为净零排放能源企业。周三，壳牌东方石油公司（Shell Eastern Petroleum）与文莱壳牌石油公司（BSP）签署了谅解备忘录，探讨文莱和新加坡碳运输和储存方案的可行性。文莱政府和壳牌集团各自持有BSP 50%的股份。
BSP总经理Agnete Johnsgaard Lewis评论道：“我们处于有利的地位，可以利用我们在文莱和新加坡的现有关系和业绩纪录，在东南亚发展潜在的CCS中心。”
如协议所述，双方将评估文莱碳储存方案和新加坡碳运输方案的技术和商业可行性。这将促进两国在制定相关政策方面的合作，同时补充两国政府为深化能源和绿色经济领域的合作所做的努力，例如通过今年8月签署的一项协议，在CCS领域进行合作。
壳牌公司新加坡分公司董事长吴嘉鹏评论道：“CCS将有助于减少我们自身运营中的二氧化碳排放，因为我们将在这里的制造业足迹转化为新加坡壳牌能源和化工园区。它还为减少难以脱碳的行业（如裕廊岛的行业）的排放提供了一种方法。这将有助于新加坡在向低碳经济转型的过程中减少其碳足迹。”
作为二氧化碳捕获技术的供应商，壳牌强调，CCS涉及成熟的技术要素——二氧化碳捕获、压缩和运输以及储存——的整合，并补充说，其航运业务在开发和建造“世界上第一艘专门设计用于运载来自CCS的液态二氧化碳的船舶”中发挥了“积极作用”。
此外，这家能源巨头“在帮助开发大型商业项目方面有着良好的纪录”，这些项目涉及整个碳捕获和存储价值链。这包括在加拿大艾伯塔省建造和运营Quest，自2015年以来，该地区的二氧化碳储存量超过700万吨，“低于预算，并在时间上提前”。
壳牌还与挪威的Equinor和道达尔能源合作，开展北极光项目，通过船舶将工业来源的二氧化碳运输至中央接收中心，然后通过管道将二氧化碳输送至海上储存库。
谈到壳牌的其他业务，值得一提的是，这家石油巨头最近公布了2022年第三季度的业绩，由于天然气价格上涨和深水资产产量增加，该公司的利润同比增长。

Shell eyes potential carbon capture and storage hub in Southeast Asia
Oil and gas major Shell has inked a deal to look into carbon transport and storage options in Brunei and Singapore, which could form part of a potential carbon capture and storage (CCS) hub in Southeast Asia.
Shell, whose ambition is to have access to at least 25 million tonnes a year of CCS capacity by 2035 and become a net-zero emissions energy business by 2050, disclosed>Agnete Johnsgaard-Lewis, the Managing Director of BSP, commented: “We are in a good position to leverage our existing relationships and track records in Brunei and Singapore to enable the development of a potential CCS hub in Southeast Asia.”
As outlined in this deal, both players will evaluate the technical and commercial feasibility of carbon storage options in Brunei Darussalam and carbon transport solutions from Singapore. This will enable cooperation between the two countries in developing relevant policies while complementing efforts undertaken by the countries’ governments to deepen cooperation in the areas of energy and green economy, such as CCS through a deal signed in August this year.
Aw Kah Peng, the Chairman of Shell Companies in Singapore, remarked: “CCS will help reduce CO2 emissions from our own operations, as we transform our manufacturing footprint here into Shell Energy and Chemicals Park Singapore. It also offers a way to reduce emissions from hard-to-decarbonise industries, such as those found>Shell, which is a provider of CO2 capture technologies, highlighted that CCS involves the integration of proven technical elements – CO2 capture, compression and transport, and storage – adding that its shipping business has played “an active role” in the development and construction of “the world’s first vessels specifically designed to carry liquid CO2 derived from CCS.”
In addition, the energy giant has “a proven track record of helping to develop large-scale commercial projects” that involve the full carbon capture and storage value chain. This includes building and operating Quest in Alberta, Canada with more than 7 million tonnes of CO2 stored there since 2015 “under budget and ahead of schedule.”
Shell also partnered with Equinor and TotalEnergies in Norway>When it comes to Shell’s other activities, it is worth noting the oil major recently revealed its 3Q 2022 results, which show higher profits on a year-on-year basis thanks to higher gas prices and increased volumes from deepwater assets.
