CCS for Enhanced Oil Recovery: Integration and Optimization of a Post Combustion CO2 Capture Facility at a Power Plant in Abu Dhabi

Indonesia memiliki power plants yang tersebar di berbagai daerah baik milik PLN ataupun perusahaan swasta (Non PLN). Setiap perusahaan akan mengemisikan Karbon dioksida (CO2) dari hasil pembakaran pada power plant. Sebagai suatu polutan, CO2 memiliki potensi untuk digunakan pada proses industri seperti Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR). CO2 EOR merupakan suatu usaha meningkatkan produksi minyak dengan cara injeksi CO2 ke dalam suatu sumur produksi tahap tersier. CO2 EOR dapat diterapkan di Indonesia dikarenakan terdapat beberapa power plants (sources) dan perusahaan minyak (sinks), khususnya di Jawa Timur. Hal ini memungkinkan untuk dapat mendistribusikan CO2 dari sources menuju sinks menggunakan perpipaan. Akan tetapi untuk mengaplikasikannya, dibutuhkan biaya (cost) CO2 captured, perpipaan, dan fasilitas EOR. Cost tersebut bergantung pada jumlah CO2 yang dialirkan, jarak dan teknologi yang digunakan, sehingga dibutuhkan optimisasi dikarenakan adanya variasi jumlah CO2 dan jarak. Dalam hal ini variabel optimisasi yaitu jalur perpipaan dan mass flowrate CO2 captured. Terdapat tujuh CO2 sources dengan kapasitas dan lokasi yang berbeda. Selain itu, terdapat tujuh sinks dengan kebutuhan injeksi CO2 yang berbeda pula. Hasil optimisasi menunjukkan CAPEX dan OPEX minimal. Nilai CAPEX dan OPEX setiap source bergantung pada jarak antara source dan sink beserta jumlah mass flowrate CO2 yang didistribusikan. Adapun source CO2 yang terpilih yaitu source 1,3,4 dan 7. Source yang tersisa (2, 5

Abstract As fossil fuels will continue to be a key source of energy for the world, the role of carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS) has become increasingly important in addressing climate change by limiting emissions and by establishing a pathway to reaching net-zero. In spite of its significance, the deployment of CCUS globally in the past decade has not met expectations. It is largely due to the challenges in commercializing the technology. On the contrary, ADNOC successfully deployed CCUS in 2016 and has been operating Al Reyadah - the world's first CCUS project in Iron & Steel Industry and Middle East's first commercial CCUS project for enhanced oil recovery (CO2-EOR). Similar to other industrialized economies, Abu Dhabi has various sources where carbon dioxide (CO2) is emitted. It also has an advanced oil & gas industry which requires CO2 for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in order to improve production output. ADNOC synergized these two industries to create a business case. The concept of a CO2 network, linking CO2 producer (source) and CO2 user for EOR (sinks) was developed as far back as 2008. Various studies where undertaken and a steel facility was identified as an ideal choice for a 1st project, given availability of CO2 and proximity to the ADNOC oil fields. In 2012, Al Reyadah was formed to develop the facility and pipeline that is operating today. This is the first step in a vision that would see multiple sources within Abu Dhabi that will be connected via a pipeline network to supply the CO2 needs of ADNOC for EOR, sequestering CO2 and reducing the UAEs greenhouse footprint, whilst freeing up vital hydrocarbon gases (used currently in EOR) for use in commercial industry. From inception, Al Reyadah has been referenced for decarbonization by many global organizations including International Energy Agency (IEA) and International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) and has won prestigious recognitions from Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum (CSLF) and Emirates Energy Awards (EEA). This paper discusses the various strategies and commercialization tactics that ADNOC applied to deploy this unique project, which is only among 21 CCS/CCUS projects operating in the world in 2020 and a precursor to thousands of CCS/CCUS projects that are expected to be built globally in the coming years.

The Cost

Carbon Capture Storage (CCS) technology has gained confidence in its ability to yield dramatic reductions of CO2 emissions from large stationary emissions sources such as coal-fired power plants. However, the pace of CCS projects has suffered from a less supportive business case. Utilization of CO2 for enhanced oil recovery (CO2 EOR) offers commercial opportunities owing to its economic profitability from incremental oil production offsetting the cost of CCS. This paper describes the prospect of CO2 EOR offsetting the cost of CCS at a coal-fired power plant. A coal-firedpower plant assumed to be commissioned in 2022 is selected as the basis of this study. The Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE) of this plant without CCS is estimated at US$ 6.4 cents/kWh and emits around 4.1 MtCO2/year. Integrating CCS to the selected coal power plant imposed additional costs associated with CO2 capture, transportation, and storage systems. The incremental costs are evaluated based on separation of 90%, 45%, and 22.5% of CO2 from the power plant flue gas. Under the 90% capture scenario, the LCOE raised more than double to 15.5 US cents/kWh which is primarily attributed to the energy penalty. A minimal reduction of 0.9 cents/kWh could bring the LCOE down below the ceiling price for geothermal. Reducing the CO2 capture percentage from 90% to 45% could reduce the LCOE to 11.2 US cents/kWh. Lowering the cost to 0.6 cents/kWh or more for this case would result in the LCOE below the state-owned electricity companys average cost of combined cycle gas turbine in 2012. Selling the captured CO2 under US$ 10 per tonne at the plant gate could help offset the cost. With numbers of new coal-fired power plants expected to be constructed in the near term, integrated coal CCS power plant with EOR is relevant for Indonesia.
