Transportation

Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage, or CCUS, is a process that will allow Louisiana’s industries that emit carbon dioxide (CO₂) to both maintain their business plans and reduce CO₂ emissions. First, it uses special equipment to remove the CO₂ from their facilities’ exhaust before it reaches the air. Once captured, the CO₂ can either be provided to companies for other uses or transported by pipeline to underground geologic formations certified for safe and permanent storage.

Pipelines have been safely transporting CO₂ for more than 50 years. An expanded CO₂ pipeline network can create new well-paying construction jobs and help sustain Louisiana’s industrial jobs.

ExxonMobil Pipeline Company currently operates the largest network of CO₂ pipelines in Louisiana. It is supporting ExxonMobil Low Carbon Solutions’ CCUS projects by helping build new pipeline segments connecting existing CO₂ pipelines to additional storage sites.

Safety is Priority Number One for ExxonMobil Pipeline Company. We will meet or exceed regulatory requirements and industry best practices during construction. We also are committed to being good neighbors in the communities where we operate and responsible stewards of the environment through which our pipelines travel.
