Understand the current position of UCG, the technology and the potential for low carbon power generation
Overview
Underground coal gasification has received renewed attention as a solution to the world’s energy problems of security of supply and low carbon emissions. Many countries, some distant from oil and gas deposits, have indigenous coal resources, suitable for exploitation by UCG, and the technology of drilling and completion now makes this possible for the deeper coal deposits. Furthermore, the high-pressure syngas produced is amenable to CO2 separation and potentially storage in nearby geological structure, making UCG highly relevant to today’s, Post Cop21 pressures of carbon reduction. The presentation deals with the current position of UCG, the technology, and the potential for low carbon power generation.
