A sub-basinal evaluation of the potential for CO2 storage in both depleted oil and gas fields and saline reservoirs in South Louisiana. The goal of the evaluation was to develop a plan to remove several million tons of CO2 per year from the refining and petrochemical industry. The project contributed to the general development of… Continue reading Integrated CCS in the Louisiana Chemical Corridor
The repurposing of Shell’s Convent Refinery into a biofuels facility. Shell Convent Refinery is located next to the Mississippi River, midway between Baton Rouge and New Orleans. Shell shut down the refinery in November 2020.
A blue methanol production plant at the Port of Caddo-Bossier in Shreveport, Louisiana. Plans for the proposed plant include a production capability of 530,000 metric tons of methanol annually, using natural gas as a feedstock. The plant would feature carbon capture capabilities, reducing carbon dioxide. The facility would be located on a 74-acre site located… Continue reading Bia Energy | Port of Caddo-Bossier Blue Methanol Plant
A hydrogen-fired blue methanol production facility on the lower Mississippi River, 25 miles south of New Orleans in Plaquemines Parish. The carbon dioxide produced from the plant will be removed and directed either to sequestration or for re-use by carbon tech companies located adjacent to the plant, including the plan to recycle the CO2 into… Continue reading IGP Methanol Mississippi River Blue Methanol Production Facility
A $1.85 billion methanol production facility in St. James Parish, LA with an installed capacity of 4,950 metric tons per day, including bio-methanol. Bio-methanol is produced using bio-methane. Koch Methanol has exclusive methanol offtake rights from the facility and constructs, owns, and operates the methanol logistics assets for the outbound flow of methanol via marine,… Continue reading Koch Methanol St. James
The plant has been operational since 2015. Methanex has received International Sustainability & Carbon Certification for bio-methanol production at its Geismar 2 site in 2022. This certification enables sales to European fuel customers under the Renewable Energy Directive II. A Geismar 3 project is under construction. The bio-methanol is produced from renewable natural gas. In… Continue reading Methanex Geismar Plant
A green methanol facility in central Louisiana with a production capacity of 400,000 metric tons of green methanol per year. The green methanol is expected to be used as marine fuel by A.P. Moller – Maersk’s fleet of methanol-powered container vessels. The facility will utilize wood fiber from local forests. The methanol will have a… Continue reading SunGas | Beaver Lake Renewable Energy Facility
The proposed project includes a commercial carbon capture facility at the existing Taft cogeneration power plant (natural gas fired, 3×1 combined cycle, heat, and power cogeneration) facility in Hahnville, Louisiana. The proposed project uses a solvent-based absorption post-combustion carbon capture system that separates and prepares for storage up to three million tonnes of CO2 per… Continue reading Cypress Carbon Capture Project
The proposed project is anticipated to produce 130,000 tonnes of e-natural gas per year that would be liquified to become liquified e-natural gas via Mitsubishi Corporation’s tolling capacity at the Cameron LNG terminal in Southwest Louisiana and exported to Japan, where the product is commonly referred to as e-methane. The proposed project is anticipated to include the production… Continue reading Sempra | ReaCH4 Project
