Description
ExxonMobil’s carbon capture plant at its LaBarge field in southwest Wyoming, which became operational in 1986. CO2 is transported and sold for EOR.
ExxonMobil completed an $86m expansion of the CO2 capture facility in December 2010, which resulted in 50% more CO2 capture than the previous plant.
In February 2022, ExxonMobil announced it had made a final investment decision to expand the project.
