As part of an ongoing project, CO2 is being separated from natural gas and pumped into a huge aquifer 800 meters below the ocean floor off the coast of Norway in the North Sea. Information obtained from this undertaking will guide the development of a best-practices manual for similar future projects by other companies to limit uncontrolled emissions of CO2.
