China National Offshore Oil Corp (CNOOC) said the country’s first offshore CO2-injection enhanced-gas-recovery (EGR) demonstration — the new central platform at the Dongfang 1-1 gas field — has completed main-structure construction and entered commissioning. When operational the project will sequester over 1 mln tons of CO2 a year in subsea formations, a material step toward scaling deep decarbonization in China’s offshore energy sector.
