Application and Development Countermeasures of CCUS Technology in China’s Petroleum Industry
Abstract
Greenhouse gas emissions cause many global problems. Under the strong promotion of the government’s two-carbon goals policy, China’s petroleum industry is actively carrying out the application of carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS). The energy consumption and carbon emissions in China are reviewed, and the importance of the petroleum industry in the process of carbon emission reduction is clarified. The applications, advantages, and disadvantages of carbon capture, carbon utilization, and carbon sequestration technologies in China’s petroleum industry are summarized, respectively. The current challenges and risks faced by China’s petroleum industry in the operation of CCUS projects are analyzed, and corresponding suggestions are provided. This article aims to systematically provide references and help for the application of CCUS in China’s petroleum industry.
