Managing Corrosion Risk in Carbon Capture and Storage Facilities Using Non-Intrusive Monitoring Technologies

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) or utilisation (CCU) of the captured carbon dioxide (CO2) are tools for reducing global carbon emissions, and to combat climate change both are required. According to the IEA1, in 2021, the global capacity of CCS grew by 48%i, showing that this technology is becoming more popular to meet sustainability targets.

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a fast-growing tool for reducing global carbon emissions in order to combat climate change. CCS technology is in its relative infancy and showed 48% growth in 2021 for commissioned projects. With unknown or new technology comes unknown risk, especially from corrosion. Some recent high profile CCS projects have been delayed owing to a range of factors, including in some cases extreme corrosion caused by contaminants in the piping. A corrosion event could be catastrophic, causing potential loss of life. Monitoring the risk and impact of corrosion and erosion using wireless non-intrusive sensors is cost effective and reduces leaks into the environment by giving real-time updates on the pipe wall thickness and corrosion rate.
