Business Wire
Denbury Inc. (NYSE: DEN) (“Denbury” or the “Company”) today
announced several new agreements related to its carbon capture,
utilization and storage (“CCUS”) business and provided its 2023
goals, which are intended to further the Company’s leadership
position in CCUS.
Chris Kendall, Denbury’s President and Chief Executive Officer,
commented, “Today, we are announcing a number of new CCUS
agreements, including CO2 transportation agreements for customers
in the emerging eFuels industry, our first dedicated CO2
sequestration site in the Rocky Mountain region, and two new carbon
capture technology investments. These agreements are focused on our
strategy of rapidly capturing the CCUS market and expanding our CO2
service offering. The growth potential of our CCUS business is
transformational, and our Company is fully aligned and focused on
delivering innovative carbon solutions for a sustainable
future.”
New CO2 transportation and/or storage agreements bring
cumulative to more than 22 Mmtpa
- The Company recently executed an agreement with HIF Global, a
leading eFuels company that is targeting to build a 200 million
gallon per year carbon-neutral eGasoline and eMethanol facility by
2027, with the potential to decarbonize the emissions equivalent of
over 400,000 vehicles. Denbury and HIF are actively engaged in
sourcing 2 million metric tons per year (“Mmtpa”) of
industrial-sourced CO2 for transport and utilization at the planned
Matagorda County, Texas, facility.
- Denbury also executed an agreement with Monarch Energy
Development LLC, a hydrogen and eFuels project developer. Monarch
currently has eFuels production facilities under development in
Freeport and Beaumont, Texas, with estimated first production by
2026. Under the agreement, Denbury will transport 0.4 Mmtpa of
industrial-sourced CO2 to be used as a feedstock in the production
process.
Initial dedicated CO2 storage site in Rocky Mountain
region
- In early 2023, the Company finalized a definitive agreement for
the right to develop a dedicated CO2 sequestration site on nearly
15,000 acres in Campbell County, Wyoming, directly underneath the
Company’s Greencore CO2 Pipeline. Denbury estimates potential CO2
sequestration capacity of the site (now named Corvus) to be 40
million metric tons.
Carbon capture technology investments expand CO2 service
offering
- Denbury recently invested in ION Clean Energy, an industry
leader in liquid solvent technologies that capture over 95% of CO2
emissions while significantly reducing operating and capital costs
for large-scale, post combustion CO2 emissions.

- The Company also recently completed an investment in Aqualung
Carbon Capture, a leader in membrane CO2 capture and separation
technology. The patented technology drives a passive CO2
separation, resulting in ability to economically capture 95%+ of
CO2 emissions across low (<3%) and high (30%+) CO2 concentration
levels. This highly scalable technology targets a wide range of
both small and large sources of emissions.

Matt Dahan, Senior Vice President of CCUS Technology for Denbury
stated, “We believe both Aqualung and ION are on the leading edge
of reducing the cost of capture for a wide range of types and sizes
of stationary CO2 emissions facilities. Our investments in these
emerging technologies will bring additional transport and
sequestration opportunities to Denbury, and we look forward to
working with both.”
2023 CCUS GOALS
- Execute additional CO2 transportation and/or storage agreements
from both brownfield and greenfield projects, so that by the end of
2023, Denbury’s cumulative agreements will cover CO2 emissions
totaling 30 Mmtpa.
- Expand the Company’s dedicated CO2 storage portfolio with the
acquisition of additional sequestration sites in strategic
locations near areas with high concentrations of current and future
CO2 emissions.
- Submit Class VI permits to the Environmental Protection Agency
(“EPA”) on at least 4 of the Company’s CO2 sequestration sites.
Denbury also targets drilling at least 2 stratigraphic test wells
in 2023 on its CO2 sequestration sites. Drilling has recently
commenced on the Company’s Orion site in Alabama.
- Enhance Denbury’s CCUS business with strategic partnerships and
equity investments around the entire value chain of CCUS.
