SOUNDBITE (Chinese): DENG CHENGHUI, Project manager of CNOOC's Enping 15-1 project STORYLINE: China's first offshore million-tonne carbon storage project was put into operation on Thursday in the South China Sea, according to the China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC). The project is designed to store a total of more than 1.5 million tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2), which is equivalent to planting nearly 14 million trees. The project serves the Enping 15-1 oil platform 200 km southwest of the city of Shenzhen. It captures and processes CO2 from oilfields and then injects CO2 into a "dome" geological structure at a depth of around 800 meters under the seabed and about 3 km from the platform.
