The SLB and Aker Carbon Seize three way partnership (SLB-ACC JV) has secured a contract from associate CO280 Options for entrance finish engineering and design (FEED) of a large-scale carbon seize plant at an undisclosed pulp and paper mill on the U.S. Gulf Coast.
The challenge, which goals to take away 800,000 metric tons of carbon emissions yearly, will even ship everlasting, verifiable and inexpensive carbon dioxide removals (CDRs), SLB stated in a information launch.
The idea design for the FEED of the carbon seize plant is predicated on the SLB-ACC JV’s modularized Simply Catch 400, a standardized and modular know-how that permits the pre-fabrication of carbon seize items. The JV is already delivering each Simply Catch and Huge Catch options to a number of industrial websites within the bioenergy, cement and waste-to-energy sectors, SLB stated.

“This contract represents a key milestone in our partnership with CO280 to ship large-scale carbon seize options for the North American business,” SLB-ACC JV CEO Egil Fagerland stated. “We sit up for persevering with our collaboration with CO280 and their pulp and paper associate to organize for a full-scale carbon seize plant by the FEED”.
“Partnerships are the important thing to eradicating megatons of carbon earlier than 2030. We’re happy with the partnerships we’ve established in each the pulp and paper business and CDR markets and of our collaboration with the SLB-ACC JV as a key know-how associate,” CO280 CEO Jonathan Rhone stated. “By capturing and completely storing biogenic CO2 at mills, we are able to unlock an unlimited carbon elimination alternative within the pulp and paper business and scale up the CDR market”.
The contract follows bulletins by the SLB-ACC JV and CO280 on their collaboration to develop large-scale CDR initiatives within the USA and Canada pulp and paper industries, in addition to their collaboration with Microsoft to scale the total worth chain of carbon elimination in the USA and Canada by capturing and completely sequestering biogenic CO2 at pulp and paper mills.
Based on the discharge, North America’s pulp and paper business represents a carbon elimination alternative of as much as 130 million metric tons per yr. By capturing and storing these emissions completely, industrial exercise achieves unfavorable emissions as extra carbon dioxide is faraway from the ambiance than is being emitted from the method.
SLB and Aker Carbon Seize (ACC) closed their three way partnership in June. The brand new firm combines know-how portfolios, experience and operations platforms to assist accelerated carbon seize adoption for industrial decarbonization at scale.
The corporate at present has seven know-how installations in progress which have the capability to seize as much as 1 million metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions per yr. The corporate is headquartered in Oslo. SLB owns 80 p.c of the brand new firm whereas ACC ASA owns the remaining 20 p.c stake.
“There is no such thing as a enterprise as ordinary within the push towards web zero—we are going to speed up decarbonization at present and commercialize progressive applied sciences for the longer term,” Fagerland stated in an earlier assertion. “We’re happy with the carbon seize vegetation we’re delivering throughout varied industries, with every buyer being an necessary front-runner in its section. Profitable challenge deliveries are paving the best way for different emitters to observe”.
