Another CO2 Pipeline Going Into The Oil -- Not a Bakken Story
Link here to Wyoming's trib.com.
.... dedicate a carbon dioxide
pipeline that will bring new life to oil fields in Wyoming and Montana.
The
Greencore Pipeline, a 232-mile project of Plano, Texas-based Denbury
Resources, will begin transporting carbon dioxide around the first of
the year, according to Bob Cornelius, company vice president of carbon
dioxide operations.
The line will connect the ConocoPhillips-owned
Lost Cabin gas plant near Lysite to the Bell Creek oil field in
southeast Montana, carrying carbon dioxide along a line through Natrona,
Johnson and Campbell counties.
Carbon dioxide is an increasingly
popular agent in oil field flooding, a process in which the gas is
injected into the ground, freeing up trapped oil deposits and adding
years to the life of an oil field.
