CCUS technology increasingly appears capable of meeting expectations related to the transition to the Net-Zero world. However, for CCUS to be successful, one of the most critical steps – monitoring – must be carried out to meet several guidelines. Therefore, the objective of this article is to verify what technological challenges the O&G industry faces in developing CCUS safely and responsibly, reinforcing its market positioning within the scope of ESG. Alternatives, solutions and opportunities will then be proposed to encourage such development. Furthermore, the relevant role of the subsea area in the integrity of CO2 storage facilities will be discussed in light of PL (Law Project) 1,425/2022 – under analysis in the National Congress – and the industry’s challenges in adapting to the PL’s new and future guidelines regulations. The work includes an integrative and systematic literature review and the theoretical references and guidelines that inspired several excerpts of the PL, as the author of this article is one of the formulators of Law Project 1,425/2022. Studies have shown that the entire O&G industry value chain can benefit from the energy transition, including using technologies such as CCUS. However, to achieve the expected results, especially within the scope of ESG, there are still paths to be followed, especially in the subsea area, including the development of monitoring technologies for CO2 storage facilities in the subsea area.
