?？松梨谔岢?000億美元碳儲存項目

　　?？松梨诘吞冀鉀Q方案業(yè)務(wù)總裁喬?布隆馬特在接受采訪時表示，該計劃將要求企業(yè)和政府機構(gòu)在2030年前提供1000億美元或更多的資金，以儲存5000萬公噸的二氧化碳，到2040年產(chǎn)能可能翻一番。

　　布隆馬特在周一的一篇博客文章中概述了這一計劃。大約兩個月前，這家美國最大的石油生產(chǎn)商成立了一個低碳解決方案業(yè)務(wù)部門，通過銷售碳減排技術(shù)和服務(wù)獲利。

　　休斯頓船運通道是數(shù)十家煉油廠和化工廠的所在地，擬建項目面臨著巨大的障礙，包括聯(lián)邦、州和地方政府機構(gòu)的融資和支持。與此同時，?？松梨诿媾R股東反對其在未來幾年增加化石燃料產(chǎn)量的目標，這將大大擴大其碳排放。

　　布隆馬特說，選擇休斯頓是因為它在海灣附近有大量難以脫碳的工業(yè)。

　　ExxonMobil Floats $100 Billion Carbon Storage Project

　　ExxonMobil on Monday floated a proposal for a public-private carbon storage project that would collect planet-warming carbon dioxide emissions from U.S. petrochemical plants and bury them in reservoirs under the Gulf of Mexico.

　　The plan would require “$100 billion or more” from companies and government agencies to store 50 million metric tons of CO2 by 2030 with capacity potentially doubling by 2040, Joe Blommaert, president of Exxon’s Low Carbon Solutions business said in an interview.

　　Blommaert outlined the plan in a blog post on Monday, about two months after the largest U.S. oil producer formed a Low Carbon Solutions business unit to profit from selling carbon-reduction technology and services.

　　The project proposed for the Houston Ship Channel, home to dozens of refineries and chemical plants, faces enormous hurdles, including financing and support from federal, state and local government agencies. It comes as Exxon faces shareholder opposition to its goal of increasing fossil fuel production in coming years that would greatly expand its carbon emissions.

　　Houston was chosen because it has a large concentration of “hard-to-decarbonize” industry near the Gulf, said Blommaert.

　　“We could create an economy of scale where we can reduce the cost of the carbon dioxide mitigation, create jobs and reduce the emissions,” he said.
