THE ZERO EMISSIONS COMPANY

CO2-Global was formed in Midland, Texas in 2004

The multi-national Board and management team of CO2-Global includes professional engineers and industrialists who have extensive financial, commercial and project development experience from the power generation and energy sectors.

Our roots go back to 2000 with the early work initiated by CO2-Norway. Since 2004 we have focused internationally and have become a recognized early-mover for Carbon Capture & Storage (CCS) where we promote the deployment of carbon dioxide (CO2) for enhanced oil recovery (EOR).

We thereby also commercialize technology that will make a significant contribution for production of clean energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions in years to come. We believe a commercial focus is essential if governments are to be successful in mitigating the impact of global warming and climate-change.

In Europe our team was already in 2001 the promoter of CO2 for EOR in the North Sea (CENS).  And are now part of the CO2Europipe consortium comprised of 19 companies that are preparing a strategic study for the European Commission identifying barriers to deployment of a pan-European CO2 infrastructure.

CO2-Global is also a participant with the Integrated Gasification Steam Cycle (IGSC) consortium that in 2008 completed a major study funded by the UK government for integration of the CES technology in combination with existing coal-fired power plants. This work was conducted in the United Kingdom in collaboration with Jacobs Engineering, Siemens Power Generation, MAN Turbo and Imperial College.

Our subsidiary company CO2-Global, LLC (based in Houston) is currently deploying similar technology solutions in projects that provide clean electric power and CO2 to oil fields in the states of Louisiana, Texas and New Mexico.  Here the technology is commercially competitive by being able to use low-quality fuel, gas and refinery waste-products for power generation.

Our Project VIKING is a 150 MW power plant proposed to be located next to a refinery in New Mexico. It is being developed in collaboration with technology and engineering partners that have extensive experience working with power, CO2 and EOR.

As a company we contribute with solutions and technology that is being proven today in niche markets before these become fully commercial.
