Abstract
A comprehensive investigation for the CCS demonstration project in Japan was started by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) just before the G8 Hokkaido Toyako Summit in 2008. Three candidate sites for the project, Nakoso-Iwaki Oki, Kitakyushu and Tomakomai, were selected for further geological surveys and engineering studies. For Tomakomai, after 3D seismic survey and two survey wells drilling, METI decided to implement a CCS demonstration project from 2012 to 2020. METI also decided to continue 2D seismic survey at Kitakyushu in 2012 and to discontinue surveys at Nakoso-Iwaki Oki after the Great East Japan Earthquake on March 11th, 2011.
