The International Energy Forum (IEF) reports that Saudi Arabia has the potential to become a global leader in Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) technology. Saudi Arabia is expected to emerge as the global leader for CCUS by 2027 with the opening of the world's largest carbon capture project.

The IEF published two reports on carbon management in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, exploring opportunities and challenges for expanding CCUS through regulatory frameworks and market growth. The reports highlight that many MENA countries, including Saudi Arabia and the UAE, have a well-established track record in CCUS and have the opportunity to become leaders in deploying CCUS solutions.

The article mentions that these reports will support countries in expanding CCUS deployment and achieving their climate goals. This article underscores the growing importance of CCUS technology in the MENA region, particularly highlighting Saudi Arabia's potential to become a global leader in this field.
