CALGARY, Aug. 2, 2018 /CNW/ - Enhance Energy Inc. ("Enhance") and Wolf Carbon Solutions Inc., an affiliate of Wolf Midstream ("Wolf"), are pleased to announce the two parties have entered into a project development and coordination agreement related to the construction and operation of the Alberta Carbon Trunk Line ("ACTL"). The ACTL is a 240-kilometre pipeline that will collect carbon dioxide ("CO2") from industrial emitters in and around Alberta's Industrial Heartland and transport it to aging reservoirs throughout central and southern Alberta for secure storage and enhanced oil recovery ("EOR") projects.

卡尔加里，2018年8月2日/ CNW / - Enhance Energy Inc.（“增强能源”）和Wolf Midstream（“Wolf”）的附属公司Wolf Carbon Solutions Inc. 很高兴地宣布双方已进入与艾伯塔省碳干线（“ACTL”）建设和运营有关的项目的开发和协调协议。 ACTL是一条长达240公里的管道，将从艾伯塔省工业中心地区及其周围的工业排放源收集二氧化碳（“CO2”），并将其输送到阿尔伯塔省中部和南部的废弃油田，以确保安全储存和提高采收率（“EOR”）项目。

Subject to closing under this agreement, Wolf will construct, own, and operate the CO2 capture and pipeline transportation assets. Enhance will continue to be the owner and operator of the CO2 utilization and sequestration portion of the ACTL project through its EOR operations. Upon closing of this agreement, anticipated to be within 60 days, the parties will enter into a long-term service agreement and construction activities related to the ACTL project will commence. Initial CO2 flow rates are expected to start at 800 tonnes per day in the fourth quarter of 2019 and increase to 4,400 tonnes per day by the end of 2019.

根据该协议，Wolf将建造、拥有和运营二氧化碳捕集和管道运输资产。 通过其EOR操作，将继续增强其成为ACTL项目的二氧化碳利用和封存部分的所有者和运营者。 在达成协议后，预计在60天内，双方将签订长期服务协议，并开始与ACTL项目相关的建设活动。 预计2019年第四季度的初始二氧化碳流量将达到每天800吨，到2019年底将增加到每天4,400吨。

CO2 will be supplied to the ACTL project by the Sturgeon Refinery (operated by the Northwest Redwater Partnership) and the Redwater Fertilizer facility (owned and operated by Nutrien, the world's largest crop nutrient company) and delivered to Enhance's EOR project in Clive, Alberta. Initially, Wolf will provide midstream services only to Enhance, with other suppliers and users of CO2 having future access to Wolf's capture, compression, and transportation services. 

二氧化碳将由Sturgeon精炼厂（由西北红水合作伙伴运营）和Redwater Fertilizer工厂（由世界上最大的作物营养公司Nutrien拥有和运营）提供给ACTL项目，并交付给位于艾伯塔省Clive市的CO2-EOR项目。 最初，Wolf将仅为Enhance公司提供中游服务，其他二氧化碳供应商和用户将来可以使用Wolf的捕获，压缩和运输服务。

"Carbon capture and storage is already established as a viable emission reduction strategy for Alberta industries and we believe it has great potential to become much more widely applied," said Gord Salahor, Wolf's Chief Executive Officer.  "The ACTL is a desirable infrastructure asset for Wolf because it represents the core of an expandable network capable of facilitating many carbon mitigation options for emitters over the long term."

 Wolf首席执行Gord Salahor说：“碳捕集与封存已经成为艾伯塔省工业可行的减排战略，我们相信它具有更广泛应用的巨大潜力。” “ACTL是Wolf的理想基础设施资产，因为它代表了可扩展网络的核心，能够长期为发射机提供多种碳减排选择。”

The construction of ACTL will be funded by Wolf in part through investments made by Canada Pension Plan Investment Board ("CPPIB") of up to $305 million. Additional public funding for the ACTL project of $63 million has been provided by the Government of Canada under the Federal EcoETI Program and the Federal Clean Energy Fund Program, and $223 million in construction funding has been approved under the Province of Alberta's Carbon Capture and Storage Funding Act (2009). Enhance also expects to invest over $1 billion in capital costs related to CO2 storage and EOR development over the life of the ACTL.

ACTL的建设将由Wolf资助，部分资金来源于加拿大养老金计划投资委员会（“CPPIB”），投资额度高达3.05亿美元。 加拿大政府根据联邦EcoETI计划和联邦清洁能源基金计划为ACTL项目提供了额外的6300万美元的公共资金，并且根据艾伯塔省的碳捕集与封存计划资助了2.23亿美元的建设资金法案（2009年）。 Enhance还预计将在ACTL的整个生命周期内投入超过10亿美元的与二氧化碳封存和EOR开发相关的资本成本。

About the Alberta Carbon Trunk Line (ACTL)

关于艾伯塔省碳干线（ACTL）

The ACTL project is a carbon capture utilization and storage project that is intended to capture CO2 from two sources in Alberta's Industrial Heartland and transport the CO2 to existing mature oil fields throughout central and southern Alberta. The mature oilfields that will initially undergo CO2 EOR are located near Clive, Alberta, and are expected to demonstrate increased light oil recovery as CO2 is permanently stored in the reservoir. The capture and permanent storage of CO2 from this project will result in significant reductions in emissions of greenhouse gases in Alberta – what will amount to the equivalent of removing more than 330,000 cars from Alberta's roads.

ACTL项目是一个碳捕集利用和储存项目，旨在从艾伯塔省工业中心地区的两个来源捕获二氧化碳，并将二氧化碳输送到阿尔伯塔省中部和南部的现有成熟油田。 最初将进行CO2-EOR的成熟油田位于阿尔伯塔省Clive附近，预计随着二氧化碳永久储存在油藏中，油的回收率将提高。 从该项目中捕获和永久储存二氧化碳将大大减少艾伯塔省的温室气体排放 - 相当于从艾伯塔省的道路上移走超过330,000辆汽车。
