The Proven Science That Keeps Carbon Capture and Storage Safe and Sustaining Industrial Jobs


“When I explain carbon capture and storage to my students, I start with a map of Southeast Texas. I point to the refineries and the power facilities, and then to the thick layers of rock below that have securely contained natural resources for millions of years. That map tells the story of why the Golden Triangle is uniquely suited to be an internationally recognized hub for the safe capture and storage of carbon emissions. 

In the Golden Triangle, carbon capture and storage (CCS) from industrial facilities follows the same practical application of geology, engineering, and industrial systems that this region has understood for generations. As these projects are planned and begin to come online, we are seeing well-established science applied to meet demands of a changing global economy.”
