Partnerships

We work closely with State and Territory Geological Surveys, CSIRO, Universities, Federal and State Government Departments, industry, international agencies and other organisations on a range of low carbon geoscience topics. Some of our formal collaborations include:

CO2CRC

Geoscience Australia has been a member of CO2CRC since 2003, and was a partner in its precursor, the Australian Petroleum Cooperative Research Centre. CO2CRC is one of the world's leading research organisations developing technologies and the science required for Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) and operates the Otway International Test Centre in Victoria.

IEAGHG

The IEAGHG is a technology collaboration programme of the International Energy Agency that plays a major role in the advancement of research, development and deployment of CCS. Geoscience Australia supports the Government’s engagement at the IEAGHG as one of the representatives of the Australian Consortium.
