據(jù)安迅思能源4月15日消息稱，據(jù)路透社報道，?？松梨诠局芩谋硎?，已經(jīng)開始為其位于澳大利亞東南部的碳捕獲存儲(CCS)中心進(jìn)行設(shè)計研究，該中心類似于其在得克薩斯州休斯敦的項目，旨在減少吉普斯蘭盆地工業(yè)的排放。

這家美國能源巨頭表示，CCS中心將利用現(xiàn)有的基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施，在維多利亞州吉普斯蘭(Gippsland)沿?？萁叩牟祭锬?Bream)油田儲存二氧化碳。

CCS將排放的碳捕獲并埋在地下，但目前尚未進(jìn)入商業(yè)化階段。

?？松梨诒硎?，它正在與當(dāng)?shù)嘏欧琶芗男袠I(yè)進(jìn)行談判，這些行業(yè)可能有興趣利用該中心減少其運營中的溫室氣體排放。

這家美國最大的石油生產(chǎn)商還計劃在附近的Baytown煉油廠建設(shè)一座制氫工廠和一個CCS項目，以在盈利的同時減少碳足跡。

埃克森美孚表示，該澳大利亞項目的碳捕獲基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施將具備每年儲存多達(dá)200萬噸二氧化碳的能力，如果技術(shù)和商業(yè)可行性得到確認(rèn)，將于2025年投入運營。

Exxon studies carbon capture project in Australia

ExxonMobil Corp said on Thursday it has begun design studies for its carbon capture storage (CCS) hub in southeast Australia, similar to its project in Houston, Texas, to reduce emissions from industries in the Gippsland Basin, reported Reuters.

The CCS hub would use existing infrastructure to store carbon dioxide in the depleted Bream field off the coast of Gippsland in the state of Victoria, the US energy major said.

CCS traps emissions and buries them underground but is not at the commercialisation stage yet.

Exxon said it is in discussions with local emissions-intensive industries which may be interested in availing the hub to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from their operations.

The largest US oil producer is also planning on a hydrogen production plant and a CCS project at its Baytown refinery near Houston, Texas, in an effort to reduce its carbon footprint while earning a profit.

The carbon capture infrastructure for the Australian project would have the capacity to store up to two million metric tons of carbon dioxide per year and could be operational by 2025 if technical and business feasibility is /confirm/ied, Exxon said.
