Significance The extent of their preparedness reflects a combination of willingness and ability. Willingness is evident in government policy and in the public's environmental consciousness and support for government targets and policies. Ability stems from wealth, both public and private, industrial expertise and the capacity to innovate. Impacts North European countries are likely to take a lead in hydrogen and carbon capture and storage technologies. Lower-income European countries will struggle to raise capital to invest in electricity transmission. Those countries able to develop deployable clean energy technologies will be better placed to offset the costs of transition.

This study focuses on carbon capture and distribution technology, which is a new approach to the solution of this problem. In order to use this technology more effectively, six significant criteria are defined by considering the essentials of the international Loss Control Institute and the supported literature. Moreover, the analytic network process (ANP) is applied for measuring the relative importance of each factor. The findings demonstrate that organizational factor has the greatest importance, whereas market factor is the weakest element. In addition, the education of the personnel is the most important criterion for low-cost industrial carbon dioxide capture and separation technologies. In this context, it is seen that companies need competent personnel in order to reduce the costs of these products. There are two types of strategies that companies can develop to achieve this goal. Firstly, it would be appropriate for companies to provide their staff with the necessary training on carbon capture and storage technologies. The second most important strategy is for the new personnel to be employed in the company. When choosing new employees, it is necessary to measure whether they have sufficient knowledge about this technology. These strategies will contribute to lower costs when developing products for carbon capture and storage technology.

Significance The companies use carbon offsets in a bid to sustain demand in the face of rising concern about methane emissions, evolving sustainability criteria, the adoption of carbon net-zero targets and a decline in public sector funding for LNG supply chain infrastructure. They are also seeking to reduce the greenhouse gas (GHG) impact of their operations. Impacts Downstream LNG infrastructure projects will find it more difficult to raise public and private finance. Carbon-neutral LNG deliveries will make a negligible contribution to limiting climate change. The adoption of carbon capture and storage to cut emissions from LNG liquefaction will offer insights for other sectors.

Significance This will have significant impact on the greening of the power sector and for new technologies dependent on affordable electricity including electric vehicles and the production of bioenergy and hydrogen. Yet in some cases, progress depends on a breakthrough in carbon capture and storage (CCS). Impacts Renewable energy sectors look likely to emerge from COVID-19 impacts stronger than before. Long-term natural gas demand is at risk if CCS development is delayed or unrealised. Electrification technologies, boosted by cheaper power, may receive enhanced regulatory support.

Predicting the sealing capacity of faults and caprocks has been a long-standing uncertainty for those involved in the exploration, appraisal and development of petroleum reservoirs. In more recent years, interest in the topic has increased in a wide range of other applications, particularly those related to the decarbonization of our energy supply such as carbon capture and storage (CCS), radioactive waste disposal, geothermal energy production and underground energy storage (e.g. compressed air, hydrogen). Knowledge of how faults impact fluid flow is also important for management of drinking water supplies. To communicate new advances in research in these areas, the EAGE organized the first international conference on Fault and Top Seals in 2003. These conferences have continued to be held at roughly 4 yearly intervals and have brought together scientists from a wide range of disciplines to discuss new research findings and workflows relevant to predicting fault and top seal behaviour, as well as presenting case studies covering both successful and unsuccessful attempts to predict sealing capacity.Thematic collection: This article is part of the Fault and top seals collection available at: https://www.lyellcollection.org/cc/fault-and-top-seals-2019
