CapturePoint is currently operating, developing and evaluating 8 regional carbon management sites across the U.S. (see the interactive map, below). From creating the world’s first multi-modal carbon management hub in 2024 in Oklahoma, to developing one of the nation’s largest onshore deep underground carbon storage hubs in central Louisiana, and on to providing a unique array of custom client services at our regional CO2 storage sites, our projects are advancing the leading edge of carbon solutions in the United States.
Our Projects
CPS CENLA Hub
The CPS Central Louisiana Regional Carbon Storage Hub (CPS CENLA Hub) has the potential to become one of the most important onshore deep underground carbon storage centers in the United States. Two of the nation’s largest energy companies, Energy Transfer and Expand Energy, have committed to capture CO2 from their Haynesville natural gas operations for sequestration in the CPS CENLA Hub and the formal offtake agreement with Energy Transfer includes options to jointly develop the CENLA Hub and to review all Energy Transfer Louisiana facilities for potential CO2 capture opportunities. At the Port of Caddo-Bossier near Shreveport, Louisiana, agreements have been announced with CapturePoint to transport and store CO2 from Bia Energy's planned Low-Carbon Blue Methanol Project and from Heirloom’s two planned Direct Air Capture (DAC) facilities. Climeworks, developer of the world’s largest operating Direct Air Capture facility, also plans to sequester CO2 at the CENLA Hub from two planned DAC facilities to be built in Calcasieu Parish in Southwestern Louisiana. In addition to the Heirloom and Climeworks Project Cypress DAC developments (managed for the US Department of Energy by Battelle), CapturePoint is in discussions to provide CO2 management services for other major industrial projects that are considering locating or expanding in the Central Louisiana region. Applications have been filed for two Class VI CO2 injection well permits (one in Rapides Parish and the other in Vernon Parish). In cooperation with the local school district and the United Association of Plumbers and Pipefitters, CPS is sponsoring the Vernon Parish School Board “Capturing Better Futures” Initiative to create career training pathways for high school students, a project which has drawn national attention as a successful model for community engagement.

CapturePoint Oklahoma Carbon Hub
In 2024, the Oklahoma Carbon Hub achieved the distinction of being the world’s first operational multi-modal carbon management site. After modernization and expansion by CapturePoint, the project now brings together industry-leading commercial-scale CO2 capture, transport and utilization functions with America’s largest Direct Air Capture (DAC) facility, constructed on-site and owned and operated by Heimdal. CapturePoint has the capacity to secure up to 750,000 metric tons of CO2 emissions annually from the Coffeyville Resources Nitrogen Fertilizer plant in Coffeyville, Kansas, then transport the CO2 by dedicated pipeline ~68 miles southwest to Osage County. There, the company has over 80 active Class II CO2 injection wells generating CO2-EOR production from the 23,500 acres of the historic North Burbank Unit (where CapturePoint also owns ~6,900 acres of surface lands). To potentially expand the Oklahoma Carbon Hub, CPS has contracted for more than 10,000 acres of underground CO2 storage space in Osage and Kay Counties and applied for a Class VI CO2 injection permit that would allow development of a regional deep underground carbon storage site. In addition, Azure has announced that CPS will capture the CO2 from their planned Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) bio-production plant in Kansas for transport to and sequestration in the Oklahoma Carbon Hub.

CapturePoint Panhandle CO2-EOR Units
CapturePoint is capturing CO2 emissions from Conestoga Energy Partners’ Arkalon bio-ethanol facility in Liberal, KS, which is connected to CapturePoint’s regional network of ~170 miles of dedicated CO2 pipelines through the Oklahoma and Texas Panhandles. There, the CO2 is utilized for CO2-EOR in over 75 Class II CO2 injection wells and ultimately sequestered in CapturePoint’s Panhandle CO2-EOR Units. CapturePoint’s new Arkalon CO2 capture facility began operating in April 2023 and captures up to 250,000 metric tons of CO2 annually.

Weld County Projects in Northern Colorado
CapturePoint has initiated development of proposed deep underground storage sites in Weld County, Colorado, and is exploring potential permit applications for both Class II injection wells associated with nearby oil and gas production and Class VI CO2 injection wells for carbon management services supporting regional industries. Rights to approximately 5,800 acres of deep underground storage space have been identified to facilitate potential projects.

Other Operating Projects
CapturePoint also manages two smaller energy production operations, in the Permian Basin of West Texas and in Krotz Springs, Louisiana, that do not currently offer carbon management opportunities.
Exploratory Projects
At four additional sites in the southern and western United States, CPS is in the early stages of evaluation and development of over 230,000 acres of deep underground geologic carbon storage space.
- Colorado West: CPS has acquired rights to ~155,000 acres of deep underground CO2 storage space for a potential regional carbon storage center in Rio Blanco County in Western Colorado.
- New Mexico Southeast: CPS has rights for ~17,500 acres of deep underground CO2 storage space in Lea County, New Mexico for potential development of carbon management services for regional industries in New Mexico and far western Texas.
- South Delta: CPS has proposed a carbon storage site in Sharkey County, Mississippi to permanently sequester carbon captured from industrial emitters in central Mississippi. In a unique community partnership, the initial 1,280 acres of deep underground geologic storage were leased in 2022 under lands held to benefit local school district students. After the deadly and devastating tornado outbreak that struck Rolling Fork, Mississippi on the evening of March 24, 2023, community engagement efforts were reoriented to recovery efforts. CPS intends to resume project evaluation as the community and school district achieve sustainable progress in rebuilding.
- Wyoming Central: CPS has acquired rights to ~57,000 acres of deep underground CO2 storage space to potentially develop a regional carbon storage center in Fremont County, Wyoming.
Each of these 4 potential sites is being evaluated for the economic feasibility of providing carbon management services that would collect and sequester CO2 emissions from industrial emitters in the surrounding regions.
