Carbon capture at commercial scale
Achieved COD on Dec. 29, 2016
• Captures approximately 1.6 million tons per year of carbon dioxide (CO2)
• CO2 is used to enhance oil production at the West Ranch Oilfield in Texas, the US
• Sequestering 5,200 tons of CO2 per day (equivalent of taking 350,000+ cars off the road)
ON TIME AND ON BUDGET
• 240MW equivalent CO2scrubber on a 640MW coal-fired power plant
Five Projects in One
1. Diverting the flue gas from an existing facility (W.A. Parish Unit 8)
2. Processing flue gas in a carbon capture system to strip out the CO2
3. Transport CO2 to a nearby oil field.
4. CO2-EOR operation to produce otherwise unrecoverable oil
5. Transport and sell oil – marketing, selling, and transporting the recovered oil

Flat terrain and flat topography through agricultural area
• 81 Miles (W.A. Parish to West Ranch)
• 12” diameter• .330 wall pipe (.406 on HDDs)• 1,900 psi at inlet
• Private pipeline• No condemnation power
CO2 Pipeline Route
West Ranch Field Development
• Field will be flooded using a “5-spot” pattern (each injector surrounded by 4 producers)
• A comprehensive monitoring, verification, and accounting plan is in place to track the flow of CO2 and to insure that it is sequestered in the reservoir.
• University of Texas Bureau of Economic Geology developed the monitoring plan to sync with oilfield operations.
Enhanced Oil Recovery Project
West Ranch Field Central Facilities
• 300+ new wells to be drilled (over 130 now complete)
• 2 central processing facilities to separate oil-CO2-water
• All produced CO2 and water is reinjected into the formation

West Ranch Oilfield - Central Processing Facilities #1 in Operation
• EOR Oil production has been confirmed.
• Recycling CO2 injection has been commenced.
West Ranch Oilfield - Test Sites in Operation
• 350,000 ston of CO2 from CCS has been already injected.
Post Start-up Preliminary Lessons Learned
• Contributing factors to “On Time/On Budget” included extensive up-front planning, turn-key contracting structure, and strong partners.
• “First-of-a-kind” projects require more time for commissioning and start-up than conventional projects.
• To the extent its economical, minimize single points of failure and include a robust spare part program for long-lead spares.
• EOR operations can be self-sustaining on recycled CO2 once a critical delivery amount has been achieved.
