The oil and gas company Equinor has corrected a misleading statement about CO2 storage in its Sleipner carbon capture project. While the Norwegian company claimed to store around one million tons of CO2 annually, figures from the Norwegian Environment Agency show that it was only 106,000 tons in 2023. The false claim was uncovered by the news portal Desmog.
