How Does Carbon Capture and Storage Work? 21/12/2023

Throughout December, we are taking another look at our top content from 2023. Including this video: https://loom.ly/-mpKlAY

CCS is a proven process that captures carbon dioxide, CO2, from industrial facilities before it is released into the atmosphere and stores it deep underground.

Learn more about the three-step process: capture, transport and storage.

How Does Carbon Capture and Storage Work? Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is a proven, reliable process that helps capture carbon dioxide (CO₂) created by industrial activities before it is released...

How Do We Know Carbon Capture and Storage Is Safe? 19/12/2023

Throughout December, we are looking back at some of our top stories from the year, including this video:

Once it’s captured, how is carbon dioxide stored permanently? Storage locations in Canada are carefully chosen for geological properties. Located in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin, Alberta has the ideal geology for the stable, permanent storage of captured CO2.

We are taking a look back at 2023 with some of our top stories, such as this one:

Pathways Alliance is making progress in our engineering and field work to prepare for a regulatory application for our proposed carbon capture and storage project. Wood, a worldwide engineering and consulting firm, has been granted a $10-million contract to develop detailed plans for a 400-kilometre CO2 transportation pipeline that would connect over 20 oil sands facilities to a permanent carbon storage hub in Cold Lake, Alberta.

Pathways Alliance blazed a trail in 2023 to help address the global energy trilemma Oil sands industry was at the heart of discussions to reduce emissions while ensuring secure and affordable energy continues to meet ongoing demand.

15/12/2023

In the month of December, we are reflecting on the standout stories from the year gone by, including this story about how the industry is focused on the safety of its proposed CCS network:

Alberta is a world-class setting for because it has the right kind of geology for the safe, permanent storage of captured CO2. This includes multiple reservoirs and hundreds of meters of caprock.

The rock formations that have securely stored oil and gas for millions of years can also safely store CO2 permanently. These multiple overlying layers of impermeable rock formations act as natural seals.

Treating Tailings 13/12/2023

This December, we're recapping our top stories from the year. Here's one of the highlights.

Canada's oil sands industry is making strides to reduce its environmental impact, with significant efforts to lessen the effects on air, water, land, and biodiversity in Alberta's boreal forest.

The industry's goal is to become a global leader in environmental management. An excellent example of this is the ongoing work by Pathways Alliance member companies, which involves treating tailings.

Who pulls Santa’s sleigh? The answer is an all-female reindeer fleet. Yes, Dasher, Dancer and the rest, even Rudolph, are female caribou. How do we know? Only female caribou keep their antlers through winter; male caribou shed theirs at the end of the mating season, well before December.
