DEN - Denbury partners with Weyerhaeuser for a CO2 sequestration site in Mississippi
- Denbury ( NYSE: DEN ) and Weyerhaeuser ( NYSE: WY ) on Monday announced an agreement for the evaluation and potential development of a CO 2 sequestration site in Mississippi.
- The lease agreement will provide Denbury with exclusive right to develop and operate approximately 16,000 acres of subsurface pore space owned by Weyerhaeuser in Simpson and Copiah Counties.
- The site, with an estimated sequestration capacity of 275 million metric tons of carbon dioxide, is located directly adjacent to Denbury's NEJD Pipeline in Mississippi.
- Denbury plans to utilize the site to permanently sequester industrial CO 2 in secure underground geologic formations, and Weyerhaeuser will continue to manage the timberland acreage as a sustainable working forest.
- Denbury said intends to drill a stratigraphic test well in 2023 at the site.
