6. The “Un-Mined Gold” Story for Energy, Jobs, and Sustainability
Domestic Energy Security
• 60 billion barrels of crude production from domestic EOR resources
• By 2030 ~15% of U.S. crude oil consumption could be supplied by CO2-EOR
Economic Security
• $3.5 trillion in reduced expenditures on imported crude oil
• 622,000 new jobs
• Cost of captured CO2 in 2020: $13 - $22/tonne CO2
• Cost of captured CO2 in 2030 : $1/tonne CO2
Environmental Sustainability
• Meeting President’s Goal: 83% reduction in GHG emissions by 2050
• IEA: “CCS …most important technology option”
• CO2-EOR can spur deployment of commercial CCUS
