The two companies said they will evaluate the possibility of a joint venture to develop a direct air capture hub in South Texas, with XRG considering investing up to $500 million.
Across Texas, abandoned wells are erupting with chemical-infused liquid and some have created massive lakes of contaminated water. Regulators say they need more money to address the problem.
The company has transformed its former Genesis platform into an artificial reef for marine life off the coast of Louisiana.

SponsoredThe oil and gas industry makes up 40% of all anthropogenic methane emissions because of leaks at the wellsite. Fortunately, the well pad is often where methane emissions are easiest to address through a mitigation strategy of optimized maintenance and process control—all enabled by instrumentation insight. -
Heightened focus on methane emissions management spurs a new conceptual framework to aid in determining the duration of detected methane emissions, data that may be useful to stakeholders responsible for measurement-informed emission protocols.
