The maritime industry faces a crucial ten-year period from 2025 to 2035 to establish its role in the transportation of CO2 and the enabling of carbon capture, utilisation, and storage (CCUS) projects. The necessary expansion of the CO2 carrier fleet, the creation of dedicated port infrastructure, the development of universal standards, and clear regulatory frameworks is creating an unprecedented challenge, but also fantastic opportunity, for the industry. This conference will provide critical insights into the regulatory landscape, technological advancements, and commercial strategies needed to meet decarbonisation targets, and examine the key priorities that must be addressed to unlock the maritime sector’s potential as a cornerstone of Europe’s low-carbon economy.
CCSA EU Deputy Director Stefano Miriello will be speaking in the session “EU Regulatory Framework Development for CO2 Transportation: The Maritime Industry Perspective” at 9:20 BST.
CCSA UK Director Mark Sommerfeld will be speaking in the panel session “Panel: Is a two-speed market emerging in Northern Europe?” at 10:00 BST.

Commercial-Scale CCS: A New Era Begins
Across the world, open-access, commercial-scale Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is no longer a distant vision—it is now becoming reality. In the North Sea the Norwegian Northern Lights project is set to launch commercial operations this year. Momentum continues to build, with multiple projects in Europe and beyond reaching Financial Investment Decision (FID) in late 2024 and early 2025, marking a pivotal shift toward large-scale implementation.
Recent geological storage licence awards in the EU and Norway further strengthen the North Sea’s role as a key hub for gigaton-scale storage capacity. At the same time, licence equity deals are emerging in Europe as across the world, as companies seek to build balanced portfolios of potential storage sites, mitigating risk and uncertainty in this evolving landscape.
This transition presents a unique opportunity for geoscientists and engineers to re-purpose their expertise, applying their skills to one of the greatest challenges of our time—securing a sustainable future through the numerous multi-millon-ton geological storage solutions now moving ahead worldwide. But significant non-geotechnical hurdles remain, including early-stage financing, pre-FID costs, regulatory uncertainties and public perception.
Despite these challenges, CCS remains a vital tool in the global effort to reduce hard to abate emissions at scale, and ongoing advancements continue to refine its viability. Now is the time to engage, innovate, and lead in shaping this critical transition.
Exploring the future of Geological CO2 Storage
For GESGB members, the world of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS)—with its wells, reservoirs, and sealing cap-rocks—may feel familiar. Yet, in many ways, it presents new challenges and opportunities. The dual imperatives of cost reduction and long-term public safety demand an unprecedented level of collaboration and transparency.
Building on the notable success of previous years and responding to growing membership interest, GESGB’s fourth one-day symposium will dive into the evolving geo-technical landscape of geological CO₂ storage. Attendees will gain essential insights and skills to navigate this rapidly advancing field, ensuring they remain at the forefront of this critical energy transition.
Unlock Opportunities at the Symposium
This symposium offers a dynamic platform for learning, research, and exploration of emerging technologies. Attendees will have the chance to network, collaborate, and forge connections with potential partners, driving innovation and shared expertise.
Beyond technical insights, discussions will cover vital industry topics, including supply chain dynamics, employment trends, technical collaboration, public perceptions, engagement strategies, and health, safety, and environmental (HSE) considerations.
Whether you’re seeking fresh perspectives, strategic partnerships, or deeper industry knowledge, this event promises to equip you with the insights and connections needed to thrive in this evolving landscape.

On Tuesday 18 March, the CCSA hosted a hybrid panel event focused on the recommendations of our recently published report “Driving Cost reductions and value for money in CCUS”.
The event was attended by 90 people online, with a further 20 in the room, and included representatives from DESNZ, No 10 and Ofgem. Speakers included Andrew White, Director at KPMG; Emma Harniman, Manager of Engineering at Bechtel Corporation; Aniruddha Sharma, CEO of Carbon Clean; Greg Williams, Head of External Affairs at Evero; Chris Thackeray, Global CCS Lead at Baringa; and David Parkin, Director at Progressive Energy. You can read the report here.
Some key takeaways included:
The need to urgently get projects deployed so that the levers for cost reductions can start to be pulled and realised in the future.
The need for innovative contracting approaches to help reduce procurement costs and appropriately assign risk.
The importance of innovation for helping to standardise carbon capture technology and deliver modular solutions that optimise space.
Expanding cross-border CO₂ transport and storage and developing GGR markets to reduce reliance on government revenue support.
The role of government-led cost-sharing approaches to improve efficiency.
