Borg CO2
The project aims at the establishment of a CCS cluster in the port of Borg with a CO2 capture potential of 630.000 tons/year. CO2 will be captured from 5 industrial facilities and transported via onshore pipelines to the terminal, at the Port of Borg where it will be liquified and loaded in ships. As part of the Northern Lights project, CO2 will be shipped to the intermediate storage terminal at Øygarden on the Norwegian west coast. There, via a 100 km long pipeline, CO2 will be injected for permanent storage in the Aurora aquifer.
