Bifrost

The Bifrost CCS Project is a Danish-led initiative aiming to establish a European carbon capture and storage (CCS) hub in the North Sea. Managed by a consortium—TotalEnergies, Noreco, Nordsøfonden (the Danish Underground Consortium), Ørsted, and the Technical University of Denmark,it seeks to repurpose the depleted Harald gas fields (including both sandstone and chalk reservoirs) for secure, long-term CO₂ storage. Supported by public funding, the project will evaluate the feasibility of using existing wells and pipelines for CO₂ transport and injection, while advancing environmental monitoring, geomechanical modeling, ship and pipeline transport concepts, and social-economic studies. Initial results indicate strong potential, with plans to begin CO₂ injection as early as 2030 at an initial capacity of at least 5 million tonnes per year, scalable over time as part of Europe’s broader decarbonization strategy.
