CO2 Capture, EOR, and Storage Optimization on Databricks

Energy and industrial organizations face increasing pressure to scale CO2 capture, ensure injection safety, protect storage integrity, and improve EOR outcomes while meeting regulatory and ESG requirements. Operational data is often fragmented across ERP, MES, SCADA, laboratory systems, historians, and IoT platforms, limiting visibility and slowing decision-making. These gaps affect capture efficiency, cost control, and compliance assurance.

This CO2 Capture, EOR, and Storage solution on the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform unifies facility, subsurface, and compliance data into a governed Lakehouse. It enables real-time monitoring, predictive optimization, and auditable reporting across the full CO2 lifecycle.

Unified CO2 capture and storage data integration

The solution consolidates CO2 capture, injection, and storage data from ERP, MES, SCADA, PLM labs, historians, reservoir models, and IoT gateways into a single Delta Lakehouse. This creates a comprehensive, system-wide view of capture operations, injection performance, and storage behavior.

By standardizing data across sources and aligning operational and subsurface metrics, teams gain consistent visibility into CO2 flows, mass balance, and asset performance without relying on disconnected tools or manual reconciliation.

Real-time monitoring and performance tracking

Delta Live Tables refine raw operational data into Silver and Gold layers with built-in quality checks and validation. This enables consistent, real-time visibility across CO2 operations through curated datasets and dashboards.

Tracks CO2 capture efficiency, injection rates, storage integrity indicators, and facility uptime using governed operational data
Enables early identification of performance deviations through continuous monitoring of operational trends
Supports timely responses across capture, injection, and storage workflows using reliable, validated data

Together, these capabilities improve day-to-day operational oversight and support more reliable responses to changing conditions across the CO2 lifecycle.

AI-driven optimization and anomaly detection

AutoML and MLflow models run on the Databricks platform to identify anomalies, predict equipment issues, and optimize injection strategies. Predictive analytics support leak detection, maintenance forecasting, and injection performance tuning to improve EOR recovery outcomes.

By moving from reactive analysis to predictive intelligence, organizations can identify efficiency opportunities earlier and support continuous operational improvement across CO2 operations.

Governance and regulatory compliance readiness

Unity Catalog establishes governed lineage, access control, and mass-balance tracking across all CO2 datasets. This ensures traceability, data quality, and auditability for regulatory reporting and ESG disclosures.

With transparent data governance embedded into the platform, compliance teams can generate accurate reports while maintaining data integrity across underlying operational data.

What makes this CO2 operations solution different

This solution delivers measurable outcomes across capture, storage, and EOR operations:

Higher capture and storage performance: Improved capture efficiency by 3–7 percent with stronger EOR recovery outcomes
Lower operational cost and energy use: Reduced cost per tonne by 10–20 percent and improved uptime from 85 percent to 95 percent
Greater operational agility: Reduced manual effort by 30–50 percent and shortened decision cycles from weeks to hours

These results are driven by holistic visibility, predictive analytics, and governed operational intelligence across the full CO2 lifecycle.

Advancing scalable and compliant CO2 operations

The CO2 Capture, EOR, and Storage solution provides a scalable foundation for real-time monitoring, predictive optimization, and compliant reporting. By unifying operational and subsurface intelligence, organizations can improve efficiency, control costs, and strengthen assurance in long-term carbon sequestration initiatives.
