ABOUT THIS TRAINING Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is an upcoming new technology that has a vital place within global efforts to decarbonise. It has a unique set of challenges, opportunities and risks to be understood and accommodated within appropriate legal, regulatory, and social and public license frameworks. The course has a strong international and global south emphasis with case studies on CCS projects and will touch on the role of CCS in developing country energy transition. The course satisfies a part of the market that is not currently catered for - the wider science, risks, financing, regulation, planning and social license aspects of CCS. These are issues that are as important as the technical issues in the sense that any of them can be a show-stopper for CCS. Training Objectives Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to: * Place CCS within the context of the global geological carbon cycle and the contribution to could make to carbon abatement * Explore the basic engineering and other challenges and solutions of CO2 transport and capture * Recognize the geological challenges and solutions of CO2 storage * Learn the methods of geological and environmental monitoring of CCS sites and why monitoring is important * Understand the policy and finance challenges and solutions of CCS projects * Know the importance of social license to operate and how to gain a social license to operate Target Audience This course will cater for in-company legal specialists, finance, project managers, marketing and communications specialists; as well as geologists, planners and environmental scientists in regulatory or government roles in regions considering the development of CCS. The course will provide up to date and relevant information to help in understanding opportunities and in managing risk. * Geoscientists * Government energy regulators and policy makers * Financiers and investors * Government natural resource and planning department * Environmental scientists * Finance professionals * Marketing and communication professionals * Legal specialists * Project managers Course Level * Basic or Foundation Trainer Your expert course leader is one of the most influential figures in British geoscience.
