Shell to test new CCS technology

Tests will be carried on industrial flue-gas sources from Equinor’s refinery at Mongstad

Shell has entered into an agreement with Norwegian carbon capture and storage (CCS) testing centre the Technology Centre Mongstad (TCM) to test a new way of capturing carbon dioxide (CO₂).
