Perenco UK and Carbon Catalyst Limited are completing the final preparations for the CO2 injection test at a carbon capture and storage (CCS) license in the North Sea that encompasses what is seen as the UK’s largest depleted gas field.

The partners secured a license to progress the Poseidon CCS project at the Leman gas fields in the UK southern North Sea in August 2023. In November, Wintershall Dea came on board by buying a 10% interest from Carbon Catalyst, marking its entry into a second UK CCS project, including the Camelot license .
