Oxy’s low carbon venture has secured an agreement with a Houston based midstream company to develop a transportation system to bring CO2 to its Bluebonnet Hub!

Happy Tuesday!   

We love articles which tie to our previous Blogs.  We recently blogged about Ory’s subsidiary 1PointFive and the progress they have made with their West Texas “Stratos” CCUS project, then we did another one on their work at their South Texas DAC Hub and then for them receiving US Department of Energy’s CarbonSAFE Initiative Phase III funding for “Bluebonnet” and “Magnolia.”  Well, 1PointFive is in the news again.

Did anyone happen to read the Oil & Gas Journal’s Daily Update on October 28, 2024, they had an article titled, “Occidental’s 1PointFive CCUS subsidiary partners with Enterprise Products Partners for CO2 transport network”?  The article is on Oxy’s low carbon venture, 1PointFive, has allied and signed an agreement with Enterprise Products Partners LP (EPD) for them to build a carbon dioxide (CO2) transit system to bring captured CO2 from industries along the Gulf Coast to its Bluebonnet Hub which is situated in East Texas in Chambers, Liberty, and Jefferson counties.   1PointFive allying with this midstream leader in oil and gas was ideal with them having an already extensive network of pipelines in this region.  EPD will be offering a fee-based transportation service to industry in the Gulf Coast region to help 1PointFive transport their client’s captured CO2 to East Texas for storage in saline formations deep underground.  Once 1PointFive has established their clientele base and work on their East Texas hub, they will let EPD know it’s time to start on the network which will be built along EPD’s existing pipeline corridors.  This is one more step in the equation to clean up our air quality and help reduce climate change.  We wish them luck moving their project and transportation system forward and we will let you know, if we hear anything else!  If you would like more information on this article from Oil and Gas Journal, please click the links: Oxy’s 1PointFive CCUS subsidiary partners with Enterprise Products Partners for CO2 transport network | Oil & Gas Journal.
