NORWAY-SINGAPORE WEBINAR SERIES 2020:DECARBONIZATION: EXPERIENCES FROM CCUS AND HYDROGEN

MAY 18-29, 2020 15:00-17:00 (SGT)/09:00-11:00 (CET)

Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) and low carbon energy sources such as hydrogen and

hydrogen carriers are part of both Norway's and Singapore's decarbonization strategies.

Innovation Norway and Singapore's Agency for Science, Technology and Research are arranging a

series of webinars to bridge experiences, technologies, companies and research cooperation between

Norway and Singapore within these areas.

This webinar series includes 7 2-hour webinars covering governmental, commercial and R&D aspects of

CCUS and Hydrogen in Norway; in addition to addressing Singapore's plans and ambitions for

decarbonization.

Speakers:

In this webinar, we will learn how the Norwegian government has been a strong promoter of CCS

activities; including research and development to large scale demonstration and international

promoting of CCS. Agencies such as Gassnova and Research Council is working in close

cooperation with industry to position Norway in the global lead of CCUS. We will also get an

update on CCS and EOR (enhanced oil recovery) activities in Southeast Asia.
