Summary/Abstract

Projections of the scale on which CCS needs to be deployed to meet targets for CO2 emissions reductions indicate that a massive CO2 pipeline infrastructure will be required. To date CCS systems have tended to be based on dedicated pipelines connecting source to sink although some studies of regional CO2 pipeline infrastructure requirements have been carried out. The purpose of this report is to examine the wider issues including design, financing, economics and regional differences. The report also reviews the legal impediments which might hamper development of international CO2 networks.
