58 Purpose of a retention lease
A retention lease enables the holder of an exploration permit to retain the right to an underground geological storage formation identified as likely to be geologically suitable for the injection and permanent storage of a greenhouse gas substance that is not yet commercially viable to develop under an injection and monitoring licence, but which might become viable to develop within 15 years.
