Table 2. ULGSS cost components

Cost Component	Cost $/tonne CO2/year	Data Source
Pipeline transportation capital costs	$1.37 to $3.71 $3.78 (for 100 km) $0.38 to $1.28	27 54^b 55^b
Pipeline transportation O&M^a costs	$0.92 to $2.47	27
ULGSS construction capital costs	$0.47 to $0.70 $0.81 $0.25 to $6.20	55^c 56 6^c
ULGSS O&M costs	$2.60	56
Local host costs during operation phase	$0.13 to $7.70	43
Local host costs during postclosure	Unknown
Costs to purchase or lease pore space	$0.04 to $11.00	40
Postclosure costs for monitoring, verification, and possible remediation	$0.13 $0.27 to $0.30	56 6
Notes: ^aO&M = operation and maintenance. ^bZhang et al. nor Keating et al. separate out transportation costs into capital and O&M. ^cIPCC nor Keating et al. separate out storage costs into capital and O&M.
