Community discussion: Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) in Campbell County

“A Low-Carbon Future for Wyoming Fossil Fuels? Update on the University of Wyoming’s Carbon Capture Research in Campbell County,” was a special Thursday edition of Saturday University held Feb. 21, 2019, at Campbell County Public Library. Wyoming coal and natural gas face unrelenting climate policy pressure to reduce their emissions of greenhouse gases. Carbon Capture research suggests that this technology may play an important role in enabling these fuels to thrive in the future. Wyoming leads research, policy and infrastructure development in Carbon Capture technology. Its university pursues several large research projects in both China and Wyoming, including an ongoing effort at Dry Fork Station near Gillette. This program explained the UW research at Dry Fork Station, including the drilling of a test well that should provide additional geologic information to inform, in part, if such a project would be feasible in the future. Three talks examined the geological, economic and social impact, both potential and actual, of this research. A facilitated discussion with audience members about Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) and the local community followed the talks. The discussion was moderated by Dr. Jean Garrison, Professor and Director of the UW Office of Engagement and Outreach. Presentations included: • Why Carbon Capture is Important for Wyoming’s Economic Future: A Climate Policy Overview -Kipp Coddington, Director of Energy Policy & Economics, School of Energy Resources (SER), University of Wyoming • The Science of Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS): Wyoming Case Studies and Wyoming CarbonSAFE -Scott Quillinan, Geologist and Director of Research, School of Energy Resources, UW -Fred McLaughlin, Ph.D., P.G. Manager & Senior Research Scientist, Center for Economic Geology Research, School of Energy Resources, UW • Carbon Capture and Communities: The Role of Social License -Jessica Western, Ph.D., Senior Research Scientist, Human Dimensions in Natural Resources; Director, Collaboration Program in Natural Resources; Ruckelshaus Institute, Haub School of Environment and Natural Resources, UW This Saturday University was sponsored by UW’s School of Energy Resources (SER) and Office of Engagement and Outreach, Gillette College and Campbell County Libraries.
