In a bold step toward strengthening the science behind permanent carbon sequestration, MicroSeismic, Inc.’s advanced subsurface imaging and monitoring technology, branded as CO2SeQure®, has been deployed at an active CCS project. This collaboration reflects the commitment to science-backed climate solutions, and the belief that permanently storing carbon safely is not just a responsibility, but a leadership opportunity.
Through this strategic effort—supported by our SBIR Phase II Grant of $1.2M from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)—MicroSeismic’s proprietary CO2SeQure technology will deliver the insights operators need to ensure the long-term integrity, efficiency, and environmental security of underground carbon storage. From pre-injection baseline studies to post-injection monitoring, the system enables more intelligent decisions and faster action, backed by the power of proven passive seismic science.
“True climate champions don’t just store carbon — they secure it,” said Peter Duncan, Ph.D., Founder and CEO of MicroSeismic Inc. “This project represents a major leap forward in commercializing the monitoring technologies needed to safely scale carbon storage and meet global net-zero goals.”
As the world strives toward a low-carbon future, advancing the technologies that ensure the safe and permanent storage of CO₂ is essential. By delivering reliable, science-backed solutions that safeguard the environment, MicroSeismic is equipping our customers to meet the challenge of managing the climate responsibly, turning bold goals into measurable impacts.

Entropy Inc., a subsidiary of Advantage Energy Ltd., has entered into a definitive agreement to purchase an interest in three carbon hubs from a Canadian oil and natural gas producer for $20 million and contingent payments of approximately $15 million (subject to adjustment) based on commercial milestones achieved by various projects .
Heidelberg Materials has officially inaugurated Brevik CCS in Norway, the world’s first industrial-scale carbon capture, and storage (CCS) facility in the cement industry. Brevik CCS will capture around 400,000 tons of CO₂ per year, representing 50% of the plant’s emissions – and equivalent to the amount of CO₂ emissions per passenger for roughly 150,000 round-trip flights between Frankfurt and New York.
Seatrium Limited announced the signing of a Letter of Intent (LOI) with long-term strategic Favoured Customer Contract partner Solvang ASA, Norway, for installation and retrofitting of full-scale Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) systems. The milestone LOI was formalized during Nor-Shipping 2025 in Oslo, reinforcing the companies’ shared commitment to sustainable maritime solutions.
PETRONAS CCS Ventures, MISC Berhad (MISC), and Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (MOL) today announced the incorporation of a strategic joint venture. This joint venture will lead the development and act as the ultimate owner of Liquefied Carbon Dioxide (LCO₂) carriers, which are critical for transporting LCO₂ to designated storage sites.
