Transocean Enabler to drill injection well for Northern Lights CCS project

Offshore drilling company Transocean will use its Transocean Enabler semi-submersible drilling rig to drill a carbon injection well to support the Northern Lights Carbon Capture Storage Project (Northern Lights).

The project, a joint venture created by Equinor, Shell and TotalEnergies, aims to decarbonise the atmosphere using the EU’s first cross-border, open-source carbon dioxide (CO2) transport and storage infrastructure network.
