28 September 2007 - Gaz de France has signed a deal with European power group Vattenfall for a pilot carbon dioxide storage project in Germany, the French gas company said in a statement.

Under this agreement, Erdgas Erdol GmbH Berlin, a 100 per cent-owned exploration-production affiliate of GdF in Germany, will use CO₂ for the enhancement of gas recovery from its almost depleted Altmark gas field, the second largest onshore field in Europe.

Injecting CO₂ into the gas field will store the CO₂ and boost reservoir pressure, enabling greater gas recovery. Vattenfall will deliver the CO₂ required for this process from its own power plant processes.

The project will take approximately 15 months to implement.

During the past few years GdF has also carried out CO₂ injection experiments on the K12-B field in the Dutch North Sea.
