Carbonvert is incredibly proud of its foundational role in the origination and early development of the Bayou Bend project.

Carbonvert CEO Alex Tiller said, “Partnering on projects to ensure their long-term success has been at the core of our business philosophy from the beginning. This divestiture will fund the continued growth of Carbonvert’s CCS portfolio in the U.S. while putting an amazing decarbonization asset in the hands of world-class organizations that are well positioned to operate the system for decades to come.”
