Project summary

To meet emissions-reduction objectives, an operator enlisted Audubon for design and management services on a large-scale carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) system. Audubon supplied conceptual design, front-end engineering and design (FEED), economic evaluation, and project management.

The CCS system was designed to capture, process, and sequester 1.5 million metric tons of CO2 in an existing oil field. To ensure feasibility for the project, the Audubon team evaluated and estimated CAPEX and OPEX for capturing CO2 from local industrial emitters.

Audubon project deliverables gave a road map to the operator for developing a CCS system to capture, process, and transport CO2 via pipeline and produce a high-quality carbon product for enhanced oil recovery (EOR).
