Montezuma Carbon LLC will be the Operator of this sequestration project. Key collaborators include the University of California Berkeley (UCB) and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), who have studied the sequestration potential of the Montezuma Hills area since 2010. UCB and LBNL are leading the design of the pipeline and injection site monitoring programs, which will provide comprehensive data to document the integrity of pipeline operations, and provide a unique, multiple media approach to document the long-term containment of the CO2 plume.

The Montezuma CO2 storage hub complex site is located on a deep-water 3,200-acre site in the northeastern portion of San Francisco Bay, near Collinsville in Solano County, CA.
