As part of an investigation into the long-term feasibility of establishing a geological CO₂ storage facility in the area between Randers and Hobro, Project Greenstore is launching an activity aimed at collecting data on the top layers of the subsoil.

Project Greenstore will soon begin the seismic survey of the underground between Randers and Hobro. The first step is to mark measuring points with GPS, and then the survey will continue in four stages. The survey will be carried out in two stages and will run from the end of October until the winter holidays in 2026.

Last week, we moved our office to Træningshuset Asferg, which hosted two days of Open Office Hours. We were met with great interest from committed landowners in the area who stopped by to get answers to their questions about the seismic survey we will be conducting this autumn.

As the seismic survey of the subsoil between Randers and Hobro approaches, Project Greenstore has been in close contact with the affected landowners in the area in recent months. Now Project Greenstore is launching a new initiative to strengthen the local dialogue and inform about a new timetable for the survey.

This autumn, six unique vibration trucks will roll out across the East Jutland landscape between Randers and Hobro. They will collect seismic data in the 500 km² area as part of Project Greenstore - a project to determine whether the subsurface is suitable for long-term geological storage of CO₂.

Now you can follow Project Greenstore's journey on our new LinkedIn, where we share knowledge, insights and news about our work to investigate whether the subsoil between Randers and Hobro is suitable for geological storage of CO₂.

The seismic programme in Project Greenstore, set to begin this autumn, is currently in full planning mode. As the many landowners give consent for parts of the survey to take place on their land, the routes are being adapted to local conditions to minimise disturbance to nature, buildings, animals, and people during the survey.

On 5 May, almost 3,000 landowners in the area between Randers and Hobro received a letter from Ramboll in their e-Boks. The letter is about the seismic surveys that from autumn 2025 will map the geological conditions of the area to assess whether it is suitable for permanent storage of CO₂

Work is now beginning to assess whether the subsoil between Randers and Hobro is suitable for geological storage of CO₂. In the months ahead, local residents will be kept informed about the investigations.
