Occidental’s subsidiary 1PointFive and Enterprise Products Partners have teamed up to develop a transportation network that will carry CO2 emissions captured in the Houston Ship Channel area to a sequestration hub in southeast Texas.
As part of the agreement, Enterprise will develop a new pipeline network and transport the captured CO2 emissions from third parties in the Houston Ship Channel to 1PointFive’s Bluebonnet Sequestration Hub, according to a news release.
The agreement was announced Oct. 28 as Occidental is taking steps to lower global greenhouse gas emissions. Carbon capture and sequestration is viewed as a promising way for industrial emitters to reduce such emissions.
“This agreement pairs our expertise managing large volumes of CO2 with Enterprise’s decades of midstream experience to bring confidence to industrial customers seeking a decarbonization solution,” said Jeff Alvarez, president of 1PointFive Sequestration.
The hub, which was awarded funding from the U.S. Department of Energy earlier this month, is being developed in Chambers County, Texas. The new network will be co-located with existing pipeline infrastructure, according to the release.
