據世界天然氣6月9日消息稱，泰國國家石油和天然氣公司PTT勘探與生產公司（PTTEP） 正在啟動該國首個碳捕集與封存 （CCS） 項目，以實現其溫室氣體（GHG）凈零排放目標。

PTTEP周一透露，該公司正準備在Arthit海上氣田開發泰國第一個CCS項目，為實現公司的凈零溫室氣體排放目標鋪平道路。該公司還在泰國其他地區啟動了CCS可行性研究，以支持該國減少向大氣中排放碳的承諾。

PTTEP首席執行官Montri Rawanchaikul表示：“我們在地球科學和石油工程方面的知識和專長為CCS的發展奠定了有利的基礎，引領我們實現碳減排目標。

“除了泰國在Arthit氣田的首個CCS項目，PTTEP還與在日本擁有CCS技術經驗的合作伙伴合作，評估在泰國其他地區發展CCS的潛力，最終將為國內其他行業的脫碳提供支持。”

Thai giant pursues development of country’s first carbon capture and storage project

Thailand’s national oil and gas company PTT Exploration and Production (PTTEP) is setting the wheels into motion to initiate the country’s first carbon capture and storage (CCS) project, in a push to achieve its net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emission goals.

PTTEP revealed on Monday that it is gearing up to develop Thailand’s first CCS project at Arthit offshore gas field, paving the way toward the company’s net-zero GHG emissions target. The firm also initiated CCS feasibility studies in other areas of Thailand to support the country’s commitment to reducing carbon emissions into the atmosphere.  

Montri Rawanchaikul, Chief Executive Officer of PTTEP, remarked: “Our knowledge and expertise in geoscience and petroleum engineering represent an advantageous foundation for CCS development, leading us towards our carbon emissions reduction target. 

“Apart from Thailand’s first CCS initiative at the Arthit gas field, PTTEP has collaborated with partners who have experience in CCS technology in Japan to evaluate the potential of CCS development in other parts of Thailand that will eventually provide support to other domestic industries in decarbonization.”
