After months of preparation, Project Greenstore is ready to receive the drilling rig and equipment required to carry out a test drill. The drilling forms an important part of the extensive investigations into the subsurface, which form the basis for assessing whether the area is suitable for the geological storage of CO2.

Between April and September 2026, Harbour Energy will be carrying out short-term environmental surveys in an area around Purhus and Handest. The surveys will be conducted by experienced biologists and specialists from NIRAS Consulting Engineers.

Harbour Energy has now completed the seismic survey in the area between Randers in the south and Hobro and Mariager in the north. This is the largest survey of its kind ever carried out in Denmark. Harbour would like to extend its sincere thanks to the local residents and landowners in the area.

Of the approximately 60,000 geophones used in the seismic survey, there are a small number that we have been unable to locate. You can help us find them.

It was previously announced that the seismic survey would be completed by 1 March. Only Glenstrup Lake remains, while the seven vibration trucks are on their way to the garage along with the other special vehicles that have been rolling around the 500 km2 area between Randers in the south and Mariager and Hobro in the north.

In connection with the ongoing investigation of the subsoil in the area between Randers and Hobro, we have compiled the five most frequently asked questions and answers.

In connection with the seismic survey, we are currently conducting a series of small controlled explosions underground in the nature area north of Lake Fussing.

Project Greenstore invites you to open house on Sunday, 18 January

Many residents of Randers and Mariagerfjord municipalities will see a blue ribbon placed in their hedge or outside their house. The purpose is to mark where a geophone should be placed.

Harbour Energy has now obtained all permits for the planned seismic survey, which will take place in the area between Randers and Hobro. The survey is an important part of Project Greenstore and will provide data showing whether the subsoil in the area is suitable for safe and permanent storage of CO₂ in the future.
