Apply soil to carbon dioxide

On the Sleiper Field platform, which exploits North Sea gas, an experiment has been underway since 1996. There they extract methane under the sea to use it as fuel. Normally, the carbon dioxide generated in methane separation is emitted simply into the atmosphere. But there they bury carbon dioxide under the sea floor. Researchers have shown that carbon dioxide is buried. In total, 5 million tons of carbon dioxide have been buried here.
Similar solutions have already been proposed to solve the problem of carbon dioxide generated by fossil fuels. They have demonstrated their good results in the North Sea and consider that, in addition to being useful for companies that extract gas and oil, it can also be valid for electricity producers.
