CCS is not a panacea, but it serves as an essential bridge during this critical phase of the energy transition. The value of industrial-scale implementations like Shell's lies in validating technological feasibility—only when capture, transport, and storage form a complete closed-loop system can we truly begin building negative emissions infrastructure.
Around the world, companies like Shell are working to store CO2 deep underground using a process known as carbon capture and storage – or CCS. Slide to explore how the process works and how CCS can help society to decarbonise. More: https://lnkd.in/eX3vGAgg

🌍 Carbon Capture and Storage: Engineering the Invisible Shield
Carbon Capture and Storage is not just a technology. It is a strategic necessity. As engineers, we often focus on what is visible: pipelines, compressors, control rooms. But CCS asks us to design for what we cannot see. It is about intercepting molecules before they reshape our climate.
Shell’s global CCS efforts, from the North Sea to the Americas, are not just about decarbonising operations. They are about building scalable models for industries that cannot electrify or switch fuels overnight. CCS is the bridge between today’s emissions and tomorrow’s net zero ambitions.
What resonates most with me is this.
CCS is not a workaround. It is a responsibility.
It draws on decades of oil and gas expertise, reframed for planetary stewardship.
Reposting Shell’s latest update on CCS.
Let us keep the conversation going. The future of energy will be shaped by what we choose to capture, not just what we choose to consume

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) - Life Line for Fossil Fuel Extraction
Another great video from Dave Borlace and his channel “Just Have A Think”. About 15 minutes in length and worth watching. “The Insane Carbon Capture Scam Continues”.
Summary
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS)
- Implementation is slow.
- Doesn’t perform as well as is claimed.
- To be economically viable, it often gets tied to Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) - the captured CO2 is pumped into the ground to help recover more oil which predominantly ends up as CO2.
- The net benefits are low or negative.
Sadly, in Canada, the government decided to fund CCS. The same funding, if allocated to solar and wind, would produce clean energy, helping to reduce emissions, almost immediately. Going the clean energy direction would have a much greater positive impact.
Why do we continue to subsidize the fossil fuel industry when doing so goes against our own self interests (clean air, clean water, a climate that sustains life)?

Fossil Fuel Carbon Capture and Storage yet again under-delivered in 2025 when the Norwegian state oil company, Equinor, was forced to admit the Sleipner CCS facility was capturing only about 10% of it's claimed 1 million tonnes per year. Similar missed CCS targets are happening all over the world. And now new research has found that the amount of realistically available global storage capacity is also roughly only just over a tenth of the amount claimed by big oil and gas.
