TC 474 - CO2 capture, transportation, utilization, storage and carbon accounting
Standardization within CEN/TC 474 includes but is not limited to: • the full lifecycle of CCUS projects; • design, construction, commissioning, operation, inspection and maintenance, abandonment / end of life / post-closure handover, storage and retrieval; • specific health, safety, and environmental aspects; • risk and integrity management and lifecycle assessment of the project or technology; • CO₂ stream composition and quality; • measurement, monitoring, verification (MMV) and quantification, including accounting of the CO₂ across the CCUS value chain The work aligns with, but does not duplicate, activities falling into the scope of other Technical Committees. The Technical Committee will promote and maintain open communication and active collaboration with all relevant committees.

The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.
A Technical Committee (TC) in CEN is a group of experts responsible for developing international standards in a specific technical area. TCs are composed of national member body delegates and work through consensus to create standards that meet global industry needs. Each TC may have subcommittees (SCs) and working groups (WGs) for specialized topics.
This document specifies the requirements and recommendations for the transportation of CO2 streams from the capture site to the storage facility where it is primarily stored in a geological formation or used for other purposes (e.g. for enhanced oil recovery or CO2 use).
This document applies to the transportation of CO2 streams by
— rigid metallic pipelines,
— pipeline systems,
— onshore and offshore pipelines for the transportation of CO2 streams,
— conversion of existing pipelines for the transportation of CO2 streams, and
— transportation of CO2 streams in the gaseous and dense phases.
This document also includes aspects of CO2 stream quality assurance, as well as converging CO2 streams from different sources.
Health, safety and environment aspects specific to CO2 transport and monitoring are also considered in this document.
Transportation of CO2 via ship, rail or on road is not covered in this document.
