The present work will address, among other aspects, the technical context, history, and importance of the use of CCS in the current world situation. This technology is highlighted as a search for technological solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and consequent mitigation of global warming. The history and motivators of the use of technology and its challenges faced over the years will be objects of study, and the storage facilities will be described, classifying them by their storage capacity, their operational status, and the development of new facilities projects. It will also be covered critical analysis regarding the use of these facilities in some countries, using the latest data from specialized entities and agencies, such as the International Energy Agency (IEA) and the Global CCS Institute. In the end, there is a description through a literature review of the methodology used for the technical evaluation of reservoirs conducive to carbon dioxide storage using the Brazilian case study.
