BKV Corporation (NYSE: BKV) today announced the successful startup of its Eagle Ford carbon capture and sequestration facility. The milestone reflects the Company’s continued execution of its CCS growth strategy, including the successful commissioning of two additional CCS facilities during the first half of 2026.
“With the Eagle Ford facility now operational,” to quote this morning’s news release, “BKV has further expanded its commercial CCS portfolio and strengthened its position as a leader in the development of economically sustainable carbon sequestration solutions.”
Eagle Ford is the first new operational CCS facility under BKV’s strategic joint venture with Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, on behalf of its Energy Transition Fund I, since the inclusion of Barnett Zero in the joint venture.
The facility was developed in collaboration with a leading diversified midstream energy company and captures CO2 from a natural gas processing plant that handles Eagle Ford Shale production. BKV acquires the CO2 waste stream from the plant, then compresses and transports it to an injection well at an adjacent site, where it is permanently sequestered underground.
The facility will sequester approximately 90,000 metric tons of CO2 annually, with BKV initially retaining all environmental credits generated by the project. The project reached final investment decision in mid-December 2024, received Class II injection well approval from the Texas Railroad Commission, and received monitoring, reporting and verification plan approval from the United States Environmental Protection Agency.
BKV shares took on 47 cents, or 1.8%, to $26.52.
