CO2 Slurry Pipeline
Project Overview
The CO2 Slurry Pipeline Project is an initiative being led by Enbridge Inc. to build a CO2 Slurry Pipeline in Alberta.
On March 15, 2010, the Government of Alberta (under Alberta Environment) announced that it had given Enbridge funding of $1 million for the “CO2 Slurry Pipeline Research Initiative.” The funding is under the government’s Clean Air and Climate Change: Technology and Innovation Program.
The “CO2 Slurry Pipeline Research Initiative” represents Phase I of the three-phase CO2 Slurry Pipeline Project. Phase I will involve demonstrating proof of the concept, as well as demonstrating the technical viability of a long-distance CO2 slurry pipeline for transporting petroleum coke, sulphur and other solids, such as limestone.
