Introduction
Carbon dioxide (CO ) capture, carbon dioxide use (CCU) and carbon dioxide storage (CCS) have been identified
as key abatement technologies for achieving a significant reduction in CO emissions to the atmosphere.
Pipelines are likely to be the primary means of transporting CO from the point-of-capture to storage sites
(e.g. depleted hydrocarbon formations, deep saline aquifers), or to usage points (e.g. enhanced oil recovery
or utilization) to avoid its release to the atmosphere. While there is a perception that transporting CO via
pipelines does not represent a significant barrier to implementing large-scale CCS, there is significantly less
industry experience than there is for hydrocarbon service (e.g. natural gas). Furthermore, there are a number
of issues that need to be adequately understood and associated risks that need to be effectively managed
to ensure safe transport of CO . In a CCS or CCU context, there is a need for larger CO pipeline systems in
2 2
more densely populated areas and with CO coming from multiple sources. Also, offshore pipelines for the
transportation of CO to offshore storage sites are likely to become common.
The objective of this document is to provide specific requirements and recommendations on certain aspects
of safe and reliable design, construction and operation of pipelines intended for the large-scale transportation
of CO that are not already covered in existing pipeline standards such as ISO 13623, ASME B31.4,
ASME B31.8, EN 1594, AS 2885 or other standards listed in the Bibliography. Existing pipeline standards
cover many of the issues related to the design and construction of CO pipelines. However, there are some
CO -specific issues (e.g. fracture arrest, internal corrosion protection) that are not adequately covered in
these standards but are addressed in this document. The purpose of this document is to cover these issues
consistently. Hence, this document is not a standalone standard, but is written to be a supplement to other
existing pipeline standards for natural gas or liquids for both onshore and offshore pipelines.
The system boundary (see Figure 1) between capture and transportation is the point at the inlet valve of the
pipeline, where the composition, temperature and pressure of the CO stream is within a certain specified
range to meet the requirements for transportation as described in this document.
The boundary between transportation and storage or utilization is the point where the CO stream leaves the
transportation pipeline infrastructure and enters the downstream infrastructure, which can be permanent
geological storage, utilization or buffer storage prior to shipping.
