Brazil ANP Resolution on CCS Authorization (Law 14.993)

ANP regulates Brazilian CCS under Law 14.993/2024 (Fuel of the Future, October 8, 2024): capture, pipeline transport and geological storage by ANP authorisation (arts.26-28) — Brazilian companies/consortia, 30-year terms extendable, EOR injection excluded from the CCS track, operator duties (monitoring and contingency plans, calibrated tools, storage and leakage inventories, audits), public basin data access, and ANP as synthetic-fuels/CCS regulator. Resolution 859/2024 (December 19, 2024) opened experimental pilot-project regulation with an internal CCS standard while definitive rules are prepared. Decree 13.095 (August 13, 2026) then regulated arts.26-29 with six technology routes (BECCS, BECCUS, CCS, CCUS, DACCS, DACCUS), SBCE linkage (Art.5: storage counts as regulated-market mitigation), ANP authorisation with financial guarantees (Art.7), and multi-user shared-infrastructure business models (Art.10). CNPE Resolution 07/2025 prioritised CCS in oil R&D themes.
