Methods and systems for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, including producing a waste gas stream comprising form greater than 0 vol % to less than 20 vol %, inclusive, carbon dioxide, pre-concentrating the waste gas stream to increase a concentration of carbon dioxide, producing a concentrated byproduct stream comprising more than 40 vol %, dissolving carbon dioxide contained in the concentrated byproduct stream in water, producing a dissolved byproduct stream and an undissolved byproduct stream, injecting the dissolved byproduct stream or a portion thereof into a reservoir containing mafic rock, and allowing components of the dissolved byproduct stream to react in situ with components of the mafic rock to precipitate and store components of the byproduct stream in the reservoir.

An offshore installation including a powerplant adapted for powering an electricity distribution network of the offshore installation and an exhaust processing module . The exhaust processing module has an input connected to the powerplant for receiving exhaust gas comprising carbon dioxide from the powerplant, a carbon dioxide capture module arranged to separate carbon dioxide from the exhaust gas, and an output for outputting the separated carbon dioxide. The exhaust processing module is powered by the powerplant, and the outlet of the carbon dioxide capture module is connected to a storage facility for temporary storing the separated carbon dioxide.

This disclosure relates to a method and a system for sequestering carbon-containing materials in underground wells. An example method includes: obtaining a material comprising a carbon-containing liquid; optionally testing the material for compatibility with an underground well; optionally adjusting a property of the material to improve the compatibility; and providing the material for injection into the underground well.

In accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, a method of subsurface sequestration of CO.sub.2 in a geological basin includes identifying one or more subsurface sequestration locations in the geological basin and injecting an aqueous CO.sub.2 solution to be sequestered into the geological basin. The one or more subsurface sequestration locations are regions of deeper geological structure, relative to an adjacent shallower geological structure, into which a negatively buoyant fluid injected into the basin will sink. The aqueous CO.sub.2 solution comprises a density that is greater than the density of the water naturally present in the geological basin, such that the injected aqueous CO.sub.2 solution pools in the one or more subsurface sequestration locations.

CO.sub.2 in the liquid or super-critical state is delivered by at least one carrier vessel from at least one CO.sub.2 storage site, which may be an onshore site, to an integrated offshore facility. The integrated offshore facility is provided with at least one on-site storage tank or vessel adapted to store CO.sub.2 in the liquid or super-critical state and with equipment for marine transfer of CO.sub.2 in the liquid or super-critical state. CO.sub.2 is utilised as required from said at least one on-site storage tank or vessel for EOR at said offshore site or for EGR at said offshore site by injection into a sub-sea oil or natural gas bearing reservoir and recovery of oil and/or natural gas from a resulting production stream.

A method and a system for sequestering carbon dioxide (CO.sub.2) while producing freshwater are provided. An exemplary method includes producing saline water from a saline aquifer, desalinating at least a portion of the saline water, producing freshwater and waste brine, mixing waste CO.sub.2 with the waste brine forming a brine/CO.sub.2 mixture, and injecting the brine/CO.sub.2 mixture into the saline aquifer.

A system for wireless transmission of power in deep subsurface monitoring includes a casing, an oscillating current source configured to energize the casing, and a wireless telemetry module disposed on the casing. The wireless telemetry module includes a shell, a toroidal antenna disposed within the shell and configured to collect electrical energy from the energized casing, a telemetry transceiver control unit disposed within the shell, a battery pack disposed within the shell, a downhole signal acquisition unit disposed within the shell, and a sensor interface disposed within the shell. The battery pack is configured to store the collected electrical energy. The telemetry transceiver control unit is configured to generate a binary code to drive the toroidal antenna.
