NCS2030 - National Centre for Sustainable Subsurface Utilization of the Norwegian Continental Shelf

NCS2030 - National Centre for Sustainable Subsurface Utilization of the Norwegian Continental Shelf

The research centre NCS2030 will find solutions that maximize the value creation of energy resources on the Norwegian continental shelf, while at the same time achieving the net zero emission (NZE) goals.

Four main research areas are identified: subsurface energy systems, net-zero emission production, digitalization, and society.

Transitioning the NCS into the future Sustainable Subsurface Value Chain requires a new way of thinking across disciplines. Increased understanding of the subsurface for hydrogen and CO2 storage, geothermal energy, in addition to efficient hydrocarbon production, are elements that the Centre will focus on to achieve the goal.

NCS2030 is hosted by University of Stavanger. NORCE, IFE and University of Bergen are the main research partners. The centre deputy chairman is Ying Guo from NORCE.

NORCE researchers contribute to all work packages across the centre and especially NORCE heads up WP4: Efficient water management for NZE, and WP5: Digital subsurface for improved decisions.

Read more about the the seven work packages at the NCS2030 website

WP1: Near field resource evaluation

WP2: Reservoir utilization for energy transition,

WP3: Net-zero emission (NZE) production

WP4: Efficient water management for NZE

WP5: Digital subsurface for improved decisions

WP6: Energy policy, economy and society

WP7: Education and outreach
