scope:

General

This document provides minimum requirements and recommendations for quantification and verification of carbon dioxide (CO₂) streams captured, transported, and geologically stored to the extent not covered by ISO standards in the TC265 series. The quantification may cover one or more of the systems that comprise a CCS project, and the same entity may not operate all of the systems included in the quantification.

NOTE Quantification and verification of CO₂ storage using enhanced oil recovery (EOR) are addressed in ISO 27916.

Applicability

This document applies to the quantification and verification of CO₂ for CCS projects that include one or more of:

a) systems for capture of CO₂ from source gas for geological storage;

b) systems for transportation of CO₂ streams for geological storage; and

c) systems for geological storage of CO₂ streams.
