“The energy industry needs to develop low carbon
solutions as a response to the climate challenge. Statoil
will be part of the solution to this challenge. Fossil
energy resources will be the dominantenergy source in
the future energy mix for many decades to come. CCS is
the only technical solution to significantly reduce CO
2
emissions from these energy sources. CCS and BIGCCS is
important for Statoil in being part of the solution to the
climate challenge.”
