BKV Announces FID on Carbon Capture Project with Leading Midstream Operator

Business Wire
BKV Corporation (“BKV” or the “Company”) (NYSE: BKV) today
announced a strategic partnership with a leading diversified
midstream energy company to develop a new carbon capture and
sequestration (“CCS”) facility at a currently operating natural gas
plant in South Texas. This partnership underscores BKV’s commitment
to reducing its emissions footprint through the development of
profitable CCS assets and sets the stage for collaboration on
future projects between the two companies.
The natural gas processing plant, located near the city of Freer
in south Texas, processes natural gas produced in the Eagle Ford
Shale. Under the announced partnership, BKV will purchase the
carbon dioxide (“CO2”) waste stream from the plant, which will then
be compressed, transported and permanently sequestered via BKV’s
injection well at an adjacent site. BKV will retain the
environmental attributes associated with the CCS project. The Texas
Railroad Commission has approved the project’s Class II injection
well and a monitoring, reporting and verification (“MRV”) plan has
been submitted to the United States Environmental Protection Agency
for approval. The project reached a final investment decision
(“FID”) in mid-December 2024. When the project is fully
operational, which is expected in the first quarter of 2026
(subject to receipt of all required permits), the facility is
forecasted to achieve an average sequestration rate of
approximately 90,000 metric tons per year of CO2 equivalent.
The new CCS facility adds to BKV’s carbon capture, utilization
and sequestration (“CCUS”) portfolio, which includes the
operational CCS facility at the Company’s Barnett Zero site in
north Texas and the Cotton Cove CCS project, which has reached FID
and is expected to begin initial sequestration operations in the
first half of 2026.
“This new CCS project addition to our portfolio further
demonstrates our commitment to achieving net-zero emissions from
our owned and operated upstream and natural gas midstream
businesses and showcases the execution of our differentiated
business model to make this vision a reality,” said Chris Kalnin,
Chief Executive Officer of BKV. “Collaborating with one of the
largest energy companies in the United States is critical for
advancing our closed loop, net-zero strategy of deploying
profitable CCUS assets. We are thrilled at the opportunity to
continue deployments of our emissions reduction technology.”
