Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (Adnoc) is set to launch two sizeable carbon capture projects at existing gas plants in Abu Dhabi and plans to use the captured greenhouse gas as part of an enhanced oil recovery project, multiple people familiar with the development told Upstream.

The two projects form part of Adnoc’s wider ambition to ramp up its carbon capture, utilisation, and storage (CCUS) capability to 5 million tonnes per annum by the end of the decade.

Adnoc is preparing to launch new carbon capture projects at the Habshan-Bab and Shah gas plants later this year, with the two projects expected to recover almost 4.2 million tpa of carbon dioxide for injection into existing oilfields for enhanced recovery, Upstream understands.
