Building trust in CO₂ storage: ISO 27914 certification for risk reduction

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a critical pathway for achieving global emissions reduction targets. However, in many jurisdictions regulatory frameworks remain incomplete, and concerns around technology maturity continue to affect public confidence and investment decisions. At this early stage of large-scale deployment, CCS projects must demonstrate robust management of environmental, technical, operational, and stakeholder risks, particularly given the low tolerance for failure. 

Why watch this webinar

• Gain a clear understanding of why certification of CO₂ storage sites is critical, and how it supports safe deployment through improved stakeholder confidence  
• Learn how ISO 27914:2026 requirements are applied in practice through a structured certification framework  
• Understand the key updates from the 2017 to the 2026 edition of ISO 27914, including a strengthened focus on quantification, monitoring, and lifecycle verification  
• Explore how certification supports regulatory engagement, investment decisions, and risk management 
• See how the updated DNV‑SE‑0473:2026 service specification provides a practical, milestone‑based approach to demonstrating compliance and assurance across the CCS lifecycle 

What you will learn 

• The certification framework for CO₂ storage sites, based on DNV‑SE‑0473:2026, and how it aligns with ISO 27914:2026 requirements  
• The business drivers for CO₂ storage certification, including assurance, risk reduction, and market expectations  
• Key CO₂ storage risks, including containment, operational, and long‑term stewardship considerations  
• The major changes introduced in ISO 27914:2026 compared to the 2017 edition  
• How verification and certification support quantification of stored CO₂ and emissions reporting claims
