GHG Assessment Permit G-15-AP Operator InCapture Pty Ltd (InCapture) and joint venture partners SK earthon Australia Pty Ltd (SK earthon) and Carbon CQ Pty Ltd (CarbonCQ) have awarded Halliburton Australia Pty Ltd the full scope of the G-15-AP CCS Declaration of Storage Project and signed a memorandum of understanding ( MOU) with Halliburton to progress towards the ambitious goal of launching a commercial scale CCS project within G-15-AP by the end of this decade.​

​Halliburton is one of the world’s leading providers of products and services to the energy industry.​

​Halliburton offers the G-15-AP project world-leading experience in identifying, maturing, and delivering CO2 storage projects at scale. Working with technical teams from the collaboration, Halliburton will assess and appraise potential storage solutions from across the G-15-AP area and progress high-graded opportunities through major regulatory processes.​

​CarbonCQ participated in the Australian Government’s 2023 GHG Offshore Acreage release, applying for GHG23-3 in November 2023 as part of a joint bidding group with InCapture and SKearthon. In August 2024, the joint venture was awarded this acreage in the form of permit G-15-AP.​

​The strategic alliance with Halliburton plays a pivotal role in the development of a world-class CCS site over the G-15-AP area, which aims to deliver safe, secure and effective storage options for domestic and international emitters, at pace.​

The Economic Regulation Authority (ERA) has published the CarbonTP report on the future of gas which was included as part of Dampier Bunbury Pipeline’s (DBP) submission for the sixth access arrangement period (AA6).

In 2024 AGIG, the owner of DBP, engaged CarbonTP to undertake long run demand forecasting for the DBP to better understand the future utilisation of their asset in the context of the Energy Transition.

The work required an understanding of all the major drivers of gas consumption across gas power generation and industry and the potential for those consumers to transition away from gas.

CarbonTP in collaboration with Sunrise Energy Group undertook scenario modelling of gas consumption based on different possible outcomes for pipeline connected gas power generation in relation to development of renewables and storage in the SWIS, combined with possible transition pathways and timelines for large industrial users to move away from gas.

The CarbonTP report and other documents related to AA6 can be downloaded from the ERA website via the following link: Access Arrangement for Period commencing 2026

CarbonTP is proud to announce that its affiliated entity, CarbonCQ, has been awarded CCS permit G-15-AP in the Australian Government’s 2023 GHG Offshore Acreage release. G-15-AP is an exciting opportunity to progress CCS in Western Australia, being located only 120km offshore from the major industrial ports of Dampier and Port Hedland.

CarbonCQ participated in the Australian Government’s 2023 GHG Offshore Acreage release, applying for GHG23-3 in November 2023 as part of a joint bidding group. In August 2024, the joint venture was awarded this acreage in the form of permit G-15-AP. The G-15-AP project, is a collaborative joint venture, operated by InCapture (75% equity) alongside partners SKearthon (20% equity) and CarbonCQ (5% equity). CarbonCQ retains an option to increase its interest to 10%.

CarbonCQ’s partners bring complementary skills, resources and access to critical project elements, which together strengthens the group’s ability to mature the project to development.

The G-15-AP joint venture is committed to the identification of opportunities to reduce carbon emissions for hard-to-abate industries. The industrial areas near the Burrup Peninsula have multiple emissions sources at varying levels of CO2 concentration, with limited existing options for abatement.

The joint venture also recognises that G-15-AP has the potential to sequester large quantities of imported GHG emissions from Australia’s major international trading partners. The joint venture is planning to develop a large-scale commercially viable CO2 storage facility in the G-15-AP permit area with injection rates initially 3-6 Mtpa CO2 expected to be achievable.
