ExxonMobil expanding its Gulf Coast carbon storage operations
Jan 28, 2026
ExxonMobil has begun transporting and permanently storing carbon dioxide from the CF Industries ammonia plant in Donaldsonville, marking a major expansion of its carbon capture and storage footprint on the Gulf Coast, The Center Square writes.
The company is using an existing pipeline to move up
to 2 million metric tons of CO2 annually from CF Industries to its Rose Carbon Capture and Storage Hub in east Texas, recently approved by the EPA for underground injection.
The project is part of a broader build-out that includes multiple new Louisiana facilities coming online in 2026, as well as agreements with steel, natural gas and industrial gas producers. ExxonMobil says its low-carbon solutions unit has now contracted to handle roughly 9 million metric tons of CO2 per year across six customers.
