The Client
Glencore’s wholly-owned Carbon Transport and Storage Corporation (CTSCo) Pty Limited Project aims to conduct carbon capture and storage (CCS), initially on a demonstration scale, and if successful, on an industrial scale.
The CTSCo Project is focused on:
- Capturing CO2 from a coal-fired power station in Queensland
- Evaluating the feasibility of storage by injection testing of the captured CO2 deep underground in the Surat Basin in Queensland.
The Project
The project is intended as a first step toward large-scale CCS, enabling future industries including hydrogen production and contributing to Australian and Queensland Government climate and emission reduction goal. inGauge won the tender to design and construct the West Moonie 1 CCS injection well for CTSCo (a wholly owned subsidiary of Glencore) in the Surat Basin in Queensland.
Our Services
For this project, we provided end to end design and project management services, covering environmental assessments, engineering design and procurement, civil construction, logistics and well construction operations management.
The Outcome
We are delighted to report that West Moonie 1 was successfully drilled to a depth of 2700m and handed over to CTSCo for use in the next phases of the technology development.
