CCS standards
DNV SUPPORTS IMPLEMENTATION OF CCS THROUGH DEVELOPING RECOMMENDED PRACTICES, STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES

STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES

A barrier to effective large-scale deployment of CCS is the need for recognised standards and guidelines that can support the implementation of CCS in compliance with emerging regulatory frameworks. DNV is committed to closing this gap and developing guidelines for critical parts of the CCS value chain.

We have developed several widely adopted industry guidelines and recommended practices through joint projects with industry, and we continue to lead the development of further practices.

RECOMMENDED PRACTICES, GUIDELINES, PRODUCTS

JOINT INDUSTRY PROJECTS - ONGOING

CO2 flow metering calibration facility

Flow meter traceability along the CO2 value chain

Enabling CO2 flow metering performance assessments and qualification, building the world-first proven reference network of facilities for testing and calibration along the entire CO2 value chain.

International CCS standards

DNV has worked with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) to build and deliver three standards related to CCS activity:

  • Carbon dioxide capture: Performance evaluation methods for post-combustion CO2 capture integrated with a power plant – ISO 27919-1
  • Carbon dioxide capture, transportation and geological storage: Pipeline transportation system – ISO 27913 
  • Carbon dioxide capture, transportation and geological storage: Geological storage – ISO 27914
