The First Mile CCS Logistics Solution for Small and Mid-size Emitters
CCS logistics is one of the challenges that need to be solved. The energy transformation requires effective and all-encompassing solutions to capture and transport CO₂. Captured CO₂ may either be utilized in industrial processes or stored permanently. Norway is hosting the first large-scale CCS value chain project through Northern Lights. This is, however, not set up to capture the coming and required flow of CO₂ from small- and medium-volume emitters.
The first mile – i.e., handling of CO₂ from emitter to storage – requires flexible and scalable solutions. ACUS has been working together with partners UMOE Composite and ASCO over the past few years, focusing on these challenges.

Workshop Program Outline:
09.00: ACUS – Who Are We?
ACUS was engaged in the Danish first CO₂ onshore storage application round (2023–24), on behalf of a major European emitter. In addition to delivering a comprehensive logistics and CO₂ storage study, we conduct various advisory services. Since 2020, ACUS has established close cooperation with European partners — both emitters and logistics providers. The CO₂ management concept in the ‘Danish case’ was based on multimodal logistics solutions and de-risking of underground storages.
ACUS has strong multidisciplinary competence within geoscience and reservoirs, drilling and wells, supply chain management, project management, and logistics.
09.30: Current CCS Storage Offers Offshore Norway, On- and Offshore Denmark
• Norwegian offshore CO₂ storage concept
• The Danish CCS approach
10.00: The First Mile CCS Logistics Solutions by ACUS – UMOE Composite – ASCO Logistics
Potential – Capacity and Flexibility:
For whom can this be the first solution for the first mile? Small- and mid-size emitters?

10.45: Norwegian Examples Defining the Needs of Small- to Medium-Size Emitters and for Multimodal Logistics Solutions
Case presentations
11.00: Eramet
Currently installing carbon capture at their Sauda melting plant, however without any supply chain to take the CO₂ for storage or alternative use.
11.15: Møkster Shipping
Planning to install a CO₂ capture system on one of their platform supply vessels. Their main challenge is that there is no supply chain to handle the CO₂ once it is placed on the quayside in a transport tank.
11.30: Lyse Biogas
Planning to establish several biogas plants. For the time being, they may emit the CO₂ they sequester from raw methane, since biogas is classified as climate neutral. There could be a market, e.g., greenhouses that currently truck in CO₂ over long distances.
11.45: A Possible Regional Solution – CCS Rogaland
The CCS Rogaland concept: Can cooperation among multiple partners located in Rogaland offer a possible solution for CCS logistics to a collection point, and — in the longer term — access to storage for small- to medium-volume emitters?
