RPS Expansion Project

RPS Expansion, LLC plans to perform the expansion phase of the River Parish Sequestration Project. The total project following the expansion will provide up to 384 million metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) transportation and storage service to large industrial emitters located in the Louisiana Chemical Corridor between Baton Rouge and New Orleans, Louisiana, in the parishes of Ascension, Assumption, and Iberville.

This CarbonSAFE Phase II effort will start the site characterization and permitting work necessary to commercialize and achieve a final investment decision on the RPS Expansion Project. This project will include four injection wells, each capable of injecting two million metric tons per annum of CO2. The RPS Expansion Project storage site will add storage capacity of 216 million metric tons of CO2 over 30 years to the original River Parish Sequestration Project. Potential emitters include industrial manufacturers of ammonia, hydrogen, chemicals, and methanol.
