A potential retrofit of some of the coal-burning units at PacifiCorp’s Dave Johnston coal-fired power plant near Glenrock, which is planned to be decommissioned by 2028. Jupiter Oxygen, Glenrock Petroleum, and others have expressed interest in purchasing the plant and in equipping some of its units with CCUS technology. In November 2022, PacifiCorp issued two… Continue reading Dave Johnston Plant CCUS Retrofit
The Lost Cabin Gas Plant project was a CCUS project with a capacity of 0.9Mtpa started in 2013 in Fremont County, Wyoming, U.S. ConocoPhillips and Denbury were the companies involved in the project. It suspended CO2 injection in 2018 when a fire at the plant resulted in the shutdown of its CCUS facility. There was… Continue reading ConocoPhillips | Lost Cabin Gas Plant Capture Project
The Petra Nova CCS project was designed to capture approximately 90 percent of the CO2 from a 240 MW slipstream of flue gas and use or sequester approximately 1.4 million metric tons of CO2 annually. It was taken offline in May 2022. Owner JX Nippon Oil & Gas Exploration said the plant resumed operations on… Continue reading Petra Nova CCS Project
A commercial CO2 flood for enhanced oil recovery development that injects CO2 deep underground to increase oil production from a crude oil reservoir. The Joffre Unit is located in central Alberta, Canada. The injection scheme takes waste CO2 from the NovaChemicals Ethylene and Polyethylene production facility. Injections began in 1984, and the Joffre Unit has… Continue reading Joffre Viking Unit
A development in southeast Saskatchewan injecting carbon dioxide (CO2) deep underground to increase oil production from two crude oil reservoirs. The project has captured over 40 million tonnes of CO2. Since 2019, it has stored 2.0 million tonnes of CO2 per year. Weyburn Unit produces primarily light oil. The Weyburn Unit has been in existence… Continue reading Weyburn Unit
In May 2022, FCL partnered with Whitecap Resources and the Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources on a research study about the potential development of a hydrogen hub in Saskatchewan. The study’s aim is to produce an analysis of commercial-scale hydrogen opportunities and synergies with carbon capture utilization and storage infrastructure in Saskatchewan.
Phase 1 of the development of a lifecycle carbon-neutral hydrogen production facility located in Mason County, West Virginia, and part of the broader ARCH2 Hydrogen Hub. The project consists of four phases with each phase producing over 500 metric tons per day of net-zero carbon hydrogen at an approximate capital cost of $2 billion per… Continue reading Mountaineer GigaSystem – Phase 1
The development, and delivery of BrightLoop hydrogen projects at Fidelis New Energy’s Mountaineer site. The project includes a build-put of four 200 MTPD of net-zero hydrogen production facilities. The BrightLoop technology enables the production of hydrogen from waste biomass including fallen trees, sawmill waste, and other solid fuels as well as natural gas combined with… Continue reading Mountaineer BrightLoop Hydrogen Facilities
BKV first CCUS project in the US. The project reached a final investment decision with EnLink Midstream, LLC in 2022. BVK is targeting the first injection of CO2 by December 2023. The project separates CO2 from substantially all of BVK’s EnLink-gathered natural gas production. In the Barnett Zero Project, EnLink will transport BVK’s natural gas… Continue reading BKV | Barnett Zero CCUS Project
In February 2022, ExxonMobil announced it had made a final investment decision to expand carbon capture and storage at its LaBarge, Wyoming, facility, which started capturing CO2 for EOR in the 1980s. The expansion project is expected to capture up to 1.2 million metric tons of CO2, in addition to the 6-7 million metric tons… Continue reading Shute Creek Carbon Capture Expansion
