What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Occidental Petroleum signed long-term agreements with two project developers to secure approximately 2 million metric tons of carbon dioxide annually. This CO₂ will be sourced from natural gas processing facilities in the Delaware Basin for enhanced oil recovery operations in the Permian Basin. The developers will finance and build the infrastructure required to capture, transport, and deliver the CO₂ to Occidental Petroleum.

The agreements support Occidental Petroleum's strategy by securing a reliable, long-term source of CO₂ to extend the productive life of existing fields. The project involves designing nearly 100 miles of new CO₂ pipelines in the Delaware Basin, which will diversify the company's CO₂ portfolio.
