7 Brad Crabtree Bipartisan Carbon Capture Tax Incentive Legislation Introduced in the U.S. House by NEORI on September 14, 2017 Bill from House Agriculture Chairman Mike Conaway Would Extend an Existing Program Section 45Q to Boost Carbon Capture in the U.S. September 14, 2017 Continued deployment of carbon capture technologies received additional momentum today with the introduction of bipartisan legislation in the U.S. House to extend and reform an existing tax credit for carbon capture projects. The Carbon Capture Act will promote commercial deployment of technologies to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from power plants and industrial facilities for use in enhanced oil recovery (CO2-EOR) with geologic storage. House Agriculture Chairman Mike Conaway (R-TX) introduced the legislation along with a bipartisan group of 29 cosponsors. Introduction of the House bill follows the July introduction of the FUTURE Act in the U.S. Senate by Senators Heidi Heitkamp (D-ND), Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV), Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), John Barrasso (R-WY), Tim Kaine (D-VA), Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and 19 other original cosponsors. Additionally working on Master Limited Partnership modifications to allow CCUS Additionally working on Private Activity Bonds to be used for CCUS 45Q did not make it through the tax reform efforts so far but efforts to include in the Tax Extenders underway

15 Dr. Mohammad Piri Professor of Petroleum Engineering University of Wyoming PIRI Research Group operates two distinct state-of-the-art laboratories and one advanced computing cluster at the University of Wyoming (UW) campus in Laramie, Wyoming. The first of these laboratories include the Encana Research Laboratory: Three Phase Flow in Porous Media and Computed Tomography constructed in 2008 located in the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences. In early 2013 the construction of the Hess Digital Rock Physics Laboratory was completed and is housed on the third floor of the new Energy Innovation Center at UW. The computing cluster, CESERFer, is located in the engineering facilities and supports the Encana Research Laboratory. Three Phase Flow in Porous Media and Computed Tomography The Three Phase Flow in Porous Media and Macro Computed Tomography Laboratory is a state-of-the-art reservoir condition two- and three-phase core-flooding facility located in the Department of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering at the University of Wyoming (UW). The facility provides a combination of capabilities that makes it one of its kind in the world. The laboratory hosts a medical CT scanner that can be rotated to the horizontal orientation allowing experiments through vertically-placed rock samples this greatly reduces the gravity segregation effects during experiments. The scanner is used to measure in-situ phase saturations and saturation distribution along the core length. The flow system consists of an oil, brine and gas pulse-free Quizix pumping system (six cylinders), differential pressure measurement arrays (for multi-pressure-tap experiments), a three-phase acoustic separator, two Quizix compensation cylinders for back pressure regulation, and three in-line Cambridge viscometers. The flow system is capable of simultaneous injection and recycling of one, two or three phases at reservoir conditions allowing both steady- and unsteady-state core-flood experiments to be carried out. The x-ray imaging system includes a high energy x-ray tube, power supply and highly sensitive detectors. The scanner can be configured to perform dual energy scanning for three-phase saturation measurements. Confining pressure is controlled by a Quizix cylinder that can automatically maintain a constant confining pressure despite variations in the pore pressure during the experiments. FIB/SEM Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electronic Microscope. Focused Ion Beam and Scanning electron Microscope (FIB/SEM) instrument combines the high resolution of a SEM with the precise milling capability of a FIB. Automated sequential sample milling and imaging allows for the creation of serial 2D images, which in turn leads to 3D volume reconstructions. The high resolution imaging (down to 1 nanometer) enables us to study the complex micro- and nano-structures in conventional and unconventional reservoir rock samples. Nano CT. X-ray computed tomography recently has been considered as an excellent method to obtain information regarding the pore structure, fluid occupancy, size, shape, and configuration of the various fluid clusters in the pore space. This non-destructive technique generates a stack of 2D images of the sample that can be visualized using a visualization software such as Avizo fire to establish a 3D view of the pore structure and fluid distribution through out the sample during a core-flooding experiment. In this lab, we ve acquired a nano-ct scanner from X-radia, i.e. Ultra XRM L- 200, to characterize samples such as shale that consist of large number of sub-micron pores, which cannot be discretized using a micro-ct scanner. This machine enables us to scan the sample at two different imaging modes: Large Field of View (LFOV) with the resolution of 150 nm and the maximum field of view of 60 μm, and High Resolution (HRES) with the resolution of 50 nm and the maximum field of view of 15 μm. A multi-phase flow core-flooding facility will be incorporated with the Ultra XRM to perform multi-phase flow experiments on various rock samples, and investigate the fluid flow behavior in the nano scale.
