Abstract

A large-scale CCS demonstration project is currently being undertaken by the Japanese government in the Tomakomai area, Hokkaido prefecture, Japan. The project is scheduled to run for the period JFY 2012 - 2020 to demonstrate the viability of CCS system from CO2 capture through to injection and storage. 100,000 tonnes per year or more of CO2 derived from an industrial source will be injected and stored in two different saline aquifers under the seabed in the offshore area of the Tomakomai Port. Construction of ground facilities and preparation of monitoring systems are progressing on schedule for planned CO2 injection startup in 2016.
