TGS, a global leader in energy data and intelligence, has entered a close collaboration with Equinor, advancing the digitalization of carbon capture and storage operations. This agreement strengthens the ongoing cooperation with Equinor by integrating cutting-edge technology to optimize field operations.
Northern Lights will integrate TGS’ Prediktor Data Gateway into its digital system to enhance management of the full CO2 value chain, from the receiving terminal to permanent storage. By delivering real-time, reliable data, the software enables more efficient operations and informed decision-making across the entire CCS process. Its functionality supports critical areas such as simulation, capacity planning, CO2 tracking, emissions and financial reporting, permitting, compliance, trading, audits, and health and safety. This allows Northern Lights to streamline workflows, reduce risk, and ensure regulatory alignment - ultimately creating greater transparency.
Will Ashby, Executive Vice President of New Energy Solutions at TGS, stated: 'This collaboration highlights TGS’ dedication to innovation and delivering data-driven solutions that support operational excellence across the energy sector. We are thrilled to deepen our collaboration with Equinor to advance carbon capture and storage (CCS). By leveraging our digital expertise, we’re proud to offer a comprehensive suite of tools and insights, from storage prospecting to subsurface mapping and monitoring, ensuring the success and safety of carbon storage facilities.'
This cooperation emphasizes the critical role of digital innovation in CCS asset operations. By leveraging real-time Operational Technology (OT) data through the Open Platform Communications Unified Architecture (OPC UA) information model, Prediktor Data Gateway empowers Equinor with enhanced control and scalability to meet evolving needs.
