'Good for the environment, good for the economy' : Bayou Bend carbon capture project could 'future proof' Southeast Texas industry


Chevron and two other companies will work together to capture harmful emissions and inject them thousands of feet underground.



Chevron executives have high hopes for their Bayou Bend carbon capture and storage project that's planned for Jefferson and Chambers counties. If permits are acquired, and funding secured, the project could be operational by 2026 or 2027.


This project is a joint venture between Chevron U.S.A, Inc., Talos Energy, Inc. and Carbonvert, Inc. The companies want to capture harmful emissions and inject them thousands of feet underground for safe storage. If everything goes according to plan, the offshore component could be up and running in 2026 and the inland section could follow in 2027.
