Texas joins the list of states which can issue Class VI well permits.

Happy Wednesday!

We were so excited, when we read this, we couldn’t wait to tell you.  Texas has been added to the states which may approve their own Class VI Wells which will help move the carbon capture and sequestration industry in Texas.   We have been blogging on this topic of other states like West Virginia and Louisiana being given the authority as well as keeping you appraised of the status of our own Railroad Commission on their journey of attaining the authority.

Did anyone happen to read the MSN on November 12, 2025, they had an article from the Houston Chronicle titled, “Texas receives greenlight for carbon storage from Trump’s EPA”? The article was on how our Texas Railroad Commission has been given the authority to permit Class VI injection wells on Wednesday, November 12, 2025, from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).  Texas Railroad Commission applied for the authority a while back and after a long road they have proven their rules are at least has strict as the EPA’s and they will protect Texas Communities and the environment.   Congratulations Texas Railroad Commission on your new authority!  If you would like to read more of the article from the Houston Chronicle published on MSN, please click the link:  Texas receives greenlight for carbon storage from Trump's EPA .
