Eco experiment performance by environmental
performer “Ramma-sensei”.

The annual CCS Forum, sponsored by Ministry ofEconomy, Trade and Industry, was held at Grand Hotel
New Oji (Tomakomai, Hokkaido), with a total of 315
participants.

Presentation by Ministry ofEconomy, Trade and Industry

In the morning of the same day, a site tour to Tomakomai
CCS Demonstration Center for the citizen was held.
There were various questions by them such as safety
and economy of CCS, and they deepened theirunderstanding on CCS.

It is believed that in order tosignificantly reduce the amount of
CO2 emissions, it is essential to
implement all global warming
mitigation measures in accordancewith the role of each technology.

CCS is the technology to bridge between now and the next generation with the new energy.

What is CCS?
CCS is a technology to prevent carbon
dioxide (CO2) released into the atmosphere
emitted by facilities such as power plants andfactories. The technology involves capturing
the CO2, injecting it into undergroundgeological formations and storing it
permanently. Along with energy efficiency andrenewable energy, CCS helps to tackle globalwarming.

Injecting the CO2 into reservoirs at depths of
1,000 meters or more. The reservoirs areoverlain by thick cap rocks that prevent theCO2 from moving upwards.

Tomakomai CCS Demonstration Project Schedule■From JFY2012 to JFY2015 : Preparation
Drilling of design and construction of facility, drilling of a injection well (a well for pressurizing CO2 to underground), preparation for
demonstration operation, etc. were carried out.

■From JFY2016 to JFY2020 : Monitoring
On April 1, 2016, Japan CCS Co., Ltd. was commissioned by METI to conduct “Tomakomai CCS Demonstration Project (FY2016)”, and on April
6, CO2 injection has commenced. We plan to inject more than 100,000 tonnes of CO2 per year for 3 years from 2016 to 2018. Even aftertermination of the injection, we will continue monitoring of CO2 behavior for two years.

※Years are in Japanese Fiscal Years (April ofcalendar year thru March of following year)

Monitoring Facilities : Location Relation
 Monitoring networks are constructed near andaround the CO2 injection point and continuously
monitored over the six years before theimplementation of CO2 injection (1 year), during
CO2 injection (3 years) and after the termination ofinjection (2 years).
 We survey the pressure and temperature of theformation in the wells - the observation well (3wells) excavated around the CO2 injection point andthe CO2 injection well (2 wells).
 We installed a seismograph in the observation welland under the seabed to observe earthquakes(including minute vibrations that will not be felt bythe body).
 Survey data is centrally controlled at Tomakomai
Demonstration Center and constantly monitored thepresence or absence of abnormality.

 There are perceptible earthquakes that the body feels, and imperceptible earthquakes even though actually vibrating.
 In this demonstration, the smallest (less than magnitude 1) imperceptible earthquakes are defined as micro-seismicity.
 In this demonstration, micro-seismicity with a magnitude of -0.5 or more with a depth of less than 50 km in the vicinity of the injection point aremonitored, due to restrictions on the placement of observation point, constraints on seismograph detection capability, and so on.

and as partial pressure (unit: μ atm) at the offshore points.
The figures of the offshore points are based on themeasurement at 2 meters above the seabed.
