Houston CCS Overview
Tuesday, 29 March 2022, 12:15 p.m.–1:45 p.m. | Houston, Texas
Carbon capture and storage could help the city of Houston meet its climate leadership aspirations and achieve its goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2050. ExxonMobil is one of several companies collaborating on a carbon capture and storage plan that could effectively decarbonize Houston. The Houston industrial area is ideally suited for deploying CCS technology on a large scale, due to the large concentration of industrial emissions that are near expansive underground geological formations both onshore and offshore. This talk discusses the Houston CCS Hub concept, and considerations for safe and secure storage site selection.
