Objectives and Tasks of Tomakomai CCS Project
Develop practical CCS technology by around 2020
demonstrate full cycle CCS system from capture to storage
confirm existing technologies adopted in the system work properly and efficiently
Tasks
demonstrate CCS system is safe and reliable
confirm effectiveness of site selection guideline prepared by METI by demonstrating no leakage
remove concerns about earthquakes by the data collected;• no influence by natural earthquakes on CO2 stored • no perceptible earth tremors induced by CO2 injection
confirm guidelines for geological models (building and improvement)
prepare technical standards regarding operation and safety of CCS projects
disclose project information & data and enhance understanding of CCS by local residents
clearly define areas to be improved or solved toward commercialization

Deviated CO2 Injection Wells
IW-1 (Takinoue Formation) IW-2 (Moebetsu Formation)
Deviated CO2 injection wells drilled into offshore reservoirs from an onshore site
➢ Cost reduction of drilling, operation and maintenance
➢ No disturbance on marine environment and harbor operation
➢ Injection interval length exceeding 1,100m to enhance injection efficiency
These wells achieved new Japanese records respectively.

DisclosurePlan
④Information Disclosure SystemDisclosure of CO2 injection volume,borehole pressure & temperature,seawater CO2 concentration,earthquake & micro-seismicity data on JCCS website
⑤Mini seminars for studentsHeld in universities in Hokkaido as wellas nationwide
⑥Kids’ lab classes/site toursHeld in primary and secondary schools inTomakomai; enhance understanding ofglobal warming and CCS through CO2
experiments. Site tours for children.Outreach Activities (FY2017)
2) Safety/CO2 leakage• Need consideration of not only
economic benefits but safety• Want more detailed information
on risk of CO2 leakage
3) Dissemination to Young Generation• 80% of forum participants over 50; low
participation by young people is regrettable • Should consider other efforts to involve
young generation
①Panel ExhibitionsExpand exhibition area in accordance with progress of project
②Forum for Tomakomai CitizensContinue holding forums to maintainunderstanding of CCS by many people
③Site ToursShow facilities and observation wells togeneral public
1) Information Disclosure• Thorough disclosure should be made• Want to know more about CCS; should
be covered by city newsletter• Diligent and careful attention to local
community is desired
