operators are seeking innovative solutions

to one o their more complex environmental

challenges: what to do with CO2 emissionsrom hydrocarbon processes.

KBR oers a variety o solutions or

capturing, compressing, transporting and

storing CO2

based on more than 60 years o

experience with urea plants.

For one major gas development project we

used a method known as geologic storage

to capture and isolate excess carbon dioxide

and inject it into a brine ormation a mile

below the surace.

As a leading EPC contractor, we have

experience with every commercially

available CCS process. We will use this

knowledge to design a solution that meets

your application and requirements.

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS)

Coal GasifcationAs oil prices continue to spiral to higher levels, operators around the world are looking

or lower cost energy alternatives to meet growing demand. For many the answer is coal,

which comprises some 60 percent o world ossil energy reserves including vast deposits in

North America, Europe, Russia and Asia where the energy demand is greatest.

KBRs transport integrated gasier (TRIG) technology oers a better way or power

generation and chemical production rom the worlds plentiul low-grade coals more

economically, reliably and with lower emissions than any other gasier on the market. Not

only does it eectively handle low rank sub-bituminous and lignite coal, KBRs process is
