GEOMAR and Ocean Networks Canada Launch Basalt Mapping Project for Carbon Storage
Original: GEOMAR & Ocean Networks Canada Begin Project To Map Basalt For CCS Reference Data
The GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research and Ocean Networks Canada have begun a joint project to map basalt formations, creating reference data for carbon capture and storage. Basalt is considered a promising rock type for permanently mineralising injected CO2. The initiative aims to support future offshore carbon storage assessments, a topic gaining attention as countries pursue methods to cut industrial emissions and meet climate targets.
Why now: Growing interest in carbon capture and storage as a climate mitigation tool is driving attention to new offshore storage research.
