據MRCHUB網站3月29日莫斯科報道，近日，西方石油公司(Occidental)的子公司Oxy Low Carbon Ventures (OLCV)表示，其已與惠好公司（Weyerhaeuser）簽署了一項協議，以評估和開發路易斯安那州的碳捕獲和儲存（CCS）項目。

如果繼續推進，該項目將位于利文斯頓教區，OLCV 的子公司1PointFive已獲得在惠好公司控制的30,000多英畝地下孔隙空間上開發和運營CCS裝置的獨家權利。財務細節或潛在能力沒有披露。

OLCV將利用這片土地將工業二氧化碳 (CO2) 永久封存在與石油和天然氣生產無關的地下地質構造中，而惠好將繼續將地上面積作為工作森林進行管理。

OLCV子公司董事長理查德杰克遜表示，1PointFive 及其計劃中的封存中心預計將成為我們業務的擴展部分，將與工業排放商合作捕獲、運輸和永久儲存二氧化碳。

Occidental and Weyerhaeuser considering CCS project in Louisiana

Occidental’s subsidiary Oxy Low Carbon Ventures (OLCV) and Weyerhaeuser have a signed a deal to evaluate and potentially develop a carbon capture and storage (CCS) project in Louisiana, said the company.

If it moves forward, the project is to be located in Livingston Parish, where OLCV’s subsidiary 1PointFive has been granted exclusive right to develop and operate a CCS unit on more than 30,000 acres of subsurface pore space controlled by Weyerhaeuser. Financial details or potential capacities were not disclosed.

OLCV will use the land to permanently sequester industrial carbon dioxide (CO2) in underground geologic formations not associated with oil and gas production, while Weyerhaeuser would continue to manage the aboveground acreage as a working forest.

“1PointFive and its planned sequestration hubs are expected to be an expanding side of our business that will work with industrial emitters to capture, transport and permanently store CO2,” said Richard Jackson, chairman of the OLCV subsidiary.
