This applies to all projects and to all areas of the world in which it operates. Shell recognises that public acceptance is not just a key enabler for individual projects but a critical element of the future energy journey globally. As project developers, Shell has a vital role to play in creating greater awareness and understanding of its activities and in ensuring it engages meaningfully and respectfully with communities and other stakeholders so that their questions are answered and their concerns are addressed. This means engaging at an early stage and maintaining ongoing dialogue as projects progress. Effective stakeholder engagement and communication is fundamental to the success of any project – it helps ensure appropriate positioning of the project, management of emerging issues or risks, and also helps ensure that mitigation, management and enhancement measures are identified and developed in a way that reflects concerns and aspirations expressed by key stakeholders. The engagement and communications approach for the Peterhead Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Project takes into account the fact that carbon capture and storage technology is relatively new. While all of its individual components are used widely elsewhere in the oil and gas industry, the specific combination of uses for CCS is new. The CCS concept and the urgent need for its development and widespread deployment, as a key part of meeting the global climate change challenge into the future, is also relatively new for many audiences. Contributing to a broader understanding of CCS is therefore also a key part of the engagement approach to be adopted on the Project. This is also important as the Project is receiving public funding through the UK Government’s CCS Commercialisation Programme. This document sets out the detail of the approach to stakeholder engagement and communications for the Project. It describes how the communications strategy supports the business objectives, identifies the key stakeholders involved and how each will be engaged, sets out how key issues will be managed and details the organisation in place to implement the activities. It also sets out the key principles that will underpin the approach taken to engagement. SSE, with whom Shell have a strategic relationship on this project, are fully supportive of this strategy and will contribute to its implementation as per the agreed Peterhead CCS Communications Protocol (see APPENDIX 1). SSE has been operating successfully in the Peterhead area for over 30 years and will use their valuable experience, local knowledge and relationships to ensure the optimum and timely delivery of this overall strategy and its individual elements. This document reflects the position at the start of the Front End Engineering Design (FEED) Study and describes the approach for stakeholder and public engagement. It describes how Shell and SSE will manage the engagement, who will be involved and the specific public consultation activities that will take place in local communities. During the two-year FEED Study period various material was develop to support the stakeholder and public engagement activities and several examples of adverts, posters and newsletters that have been used are included in the appendices. Further details of the public engagement activity are described in the Shell’s Pre-planning Application Consultation (PAC) document that has been included in APPENDIX 4.

Introduction 1.1. Project Introduction The Peterhead Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Project aims to capture around one million tonnes of CO2 per annum, over a period of up to 15 years, from an existing combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) located at SSE’s Peterhead Power Station in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. This would be the world’s first commercial-scale demonstration of post combustion CO2 capture, transport and offshore geological storage from a gas-fired power station. As the Goldeneye gas-condensate field has ceased production, the production facility will be modified to allow the injection of dense phase CO2 captured from the post-combustion gases of Peterhead Power Station into the depleted Goldeneye reservoir. The CO2 will be captured from the flue gas produced by one of the gas turbines at Peterhead Power Station (GT13) using amine-based technology provided by Cansolv (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shell). After capture the CO2 will be routed to a compression facility, where it will be compressed, cooled and conditioned for water and oxygen removal to meet suitable transportation and storage specifications.
