CLIMIT is a program administrated by Gassnova and the Norwegian Research Council to encourage commercial development of technology for capturing and storing CO2.
The pilot project will verify a cost effective system for subsea CO2 storage combining permanent monitoring of the seabed with other forms of environmental monitoring of the sea in a complete warning system.
Octio will uses its proprietary technology for permanent monitoring of the seabed which will include placing of seismic nodes on the seabed in the actual area.
These will send data about changes in the seabed continuously to a surface vessel, platform or a central onshore.
These signals can also be combined with other input from oceanographic and environmental monitoring so that those responsible continuously have a good picture of suspicious changes in the seabed or the environment.
