All commercial CCS projects will need to handle very large quantities of CO 2 and a significant leak from a large inventory CO 2 system has the potential to be life threatening to people caught within the ensuing dispersing cloud. Whilst there is no reason why the CO 2 major accident risks from a CCS operation cannot be low and well within acceptable limits this will require an adequate understanding of the properties and behaviors of the CO 2 stream.
The CO2RISKMAN guidance is structured to form a pyramid of four documents, with an Executive Summary at the top to a more detailed CCS link-specific document at the bottom. This structure should enable efficient access to the level of information being sought. The four documents that combine to form the CO2RISKMAN guidance are:
- Level 1 – Executive Summary
- Level 2 – Overview
- Level 3 – Generic guidance
- Level 4 – Specific CCS chain guidance.
