3 Concept overview Pipeline 110km un-insulated pipeline 12 ¼ inch Single phase (liquid) CO 2 Subsea facilities Connecting pipeline, umbilical and well(s) Water depth ~300m Connection for future stepout Subsea injection well Injection of CO 2 into reservoir at ~2-3000m depth Pressure in reservoir ~2-300bar Temperature in reservoir ~100 ºC CO 2 Capture Sites CO 2 captured by Fortum, at Klemetsrud, and Norcem, in Brevik, and stored locally at their jetties Storage volume at each site required to account for ship arrival every four days plus a buffer for any upsets in the overall chain Jetty operations are assumed to be by capture plant Ship(s) One ship per capture site 7,500m 3 of LCO 2 per ship Pressure 13-18barg at equilibrium temperature (approx. -30 ºC) Onshore facilities One jetty for ship mooring Tank volume based on ship cargo size Pump system to provide required export pressure Evaporator to maintain vapour/liquid balance in storage tanks during injection Heater to inject above pipeline minimum temperature Umbilical Connection from Osebergfield providing power and signal from DC/FO and fluids through umbilical system 5 Capacity (Mt/y) ship(s) + pump capacity + heater capacity + jetty + tanks? + well(s) Storage complex Planned in the Johansen formation south of Troll ( Aurora ) with an expected capacity of at least 100 Mt of CO 2 2 x ship 1 x ship Onshore facilities Pipeline 1 x injection well (tbc) Umbilical system Open

6 Carbon capture and storage (CCS) needs to play an important role in meeting climate goals IPCCs Special report on Global Warming of 1,5 o C, 2018 Carbon capture, utilisation and in meeting climate goals storage (CCUS) needs to play an important role IEA World Energy Outlook 2018 Source: The Global Status of CCS 2018, Global CCS Institute

7 Despite new technology, there has never been any energy transition To meet GHG targets, we need ALL solutions that contribute and we do NOT need those that do not contribute Shifts in primary energy supply has taken decades in the past but GROWTH in energy demand more than outweigh shift between supply sources To meet the 1.5 degree target, all energy use has to be carbon neutral by 2050! This cannot be solved by phasing in renewables only - it is currently a small fraction We need to use the entire toolbox to have the slightest chance of succeeding

8 Norwegian processing industry roadmap, 2016 Aims for double production & negative emissions in 2050 Need ambitious, long-term technology development programs Process21 Requires CCS - national effort to build industrial CCS value chain should continue Requires sustainable biomass opportunity for Norwegian industry

9 CCS in Norway 22 years of succesful industrial experience Snøhvit CCS i drift 2008 Fullskala demonstrasjons prosjekt ( ) CO 2 test senter (TCM) i drift 2012 Sleipner CCS i drift år med driftserfaring Ca 22 Mill tonn CO 2 lagret 9

10 How we have confidence in CCS and CO 2 storage The operational experience argument We know from 22 years of operations that CCS works The geophysical monitoring argument We can see where the CO 2 is and show it is safely stored The regulatory compliance argument We can demonstrate regulatory conformance The underlying physics of CO 2 storage in rock pores CO 2 is trapped in microscopic rock pores by the same process that has trapped natural gas for millions of years

13 In dialogue with 4 facilities in Sweden Preem Lysekil Stockholm Exergi Renova Gothenburg Plagazi Köping Estimated total of 2 MTPA capturable CO2 Several other sites are well positioned 13 Document Title

14 Potential in Sweden is much larger how can pulp & paper industry rapidly become the climate double winners they are destined to be? 96 facilities 48 MTPA of CO2 Estimated 37 MTPA of capturable CO2 Large amounts of bio-based CO2 emissions 14 Document Title
