What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Australian Government declared an identified greenhouse gas storage formation for the Bonaparte Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Project, marking the first such declaration for an offshore saline aquifer storage site in Australia. The Bonaparte CCS Joint Venture, which includes Inpex, Woodside Energy, and TotalEnergies CCS Australia, welcomed the approval. This project, which has Major Project Status from 2025, targets CO2 injection for the early 2030s.
