About this project
The description is as the source gives it.
Sinopec captures CO2 from its Qilu refinery hydrogen production process and injects it into its Shengli oilfield wells for enhanced oil recovery and permanent storage. This insetting project directly reduces the company's own Scope 1 emissions from refining and upstream operations. Evidence: "China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation (HKG: 0386, "Sinopec") has completed the construction of China's first megaton carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) project, the Qilu-Shengli Oilfield CCUS (the "Project") on January 29, which will reduce carbon emission by 1 million tons per year" — https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/sinopec-completes-chinas-first-megaton-scale-carbon-capture-project-301471112.html
