Description
A proposed carbon capture storage facility designed to sequester CO2 from Cameron LNG and potentially other industrial sources. Cameron LNG Phase 1 and proposed Phase 2 export projects would potentially serve as the anchor source for the capture and sequestration of CO2.
With the development of this project, the CO2 would be captured at the LNG facility and transported by pipeline to a compression facility on land owned by LA Storage, a subsidiary of Sempra Infrastructure. It will then be permanently stored in a saline aquifer using an injection well located approximately 8,000 feet under the surface of the earth with a capacity of up to two million tonnes of CO2 per year.
The proposed project will consist of a CO2 compression and processing facility and include pipelines to transport the CO2 to the sequestration well. Sempra Infrastructure intends to co-locate the CO2 pipelines with other existing pipeline infrastructure to minimize the impacts on landowners.
Sempra signed a participation agreement with TotalEnergies, Mitsui & Co., Ltd. and Mitsubishi Corporation for the development of the project.
