Baker Hughes has launched CarbonEdge, an end-to-end, risk-based digital platform for carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) operations. CarbonEdge delivers real-time data and alerts on carbon dioxide (CO2) flows across CCUS infrastructure, from carbon capture and compression to pipeline transportation, as well as subsurface storage. This connectivity across the entire CCUS project lifecycle enables customers to identify and manage risk, improve decision-making, enhance operational efficiency, and simplify regulatory reporting, according to the company.
“CCUS technology solutions are essential for driving decarbonization of the energy and industrial sectors on our path to solving for climate change,” said Baker Hughes Chair and CEO Lorenzo Simonelli. “With the launch of CarbonEdge, we not only expand our portfolio of digital solutions to support new energies and empower our customers’ ability to mitigate risk while enhancing operational efficiency, but also take a bold step toward a future with more sustainable energy development. We look forward to working alongside Wabash Valley Resources to refine and evolve CarbonEdge, ensuring it continues to meet the dynamic needs of a rapidly changing industry.”
In July 2024, Wabash Valley Resources (WVR), a low-carbon ammonia fertilizer production company, and Baker Hughes signed a long-term agreement to supply advanced technology services and solutions to support WVR’s ammonia production (see “Baker Hughes Compressors For Indiana Carbon Sequestration Project,” July 19, 2024). As a launch customer, WVR will leverage CarbonEdge to measure, monitor, and verify the volumes of CO2 collected, transported, and sequestered underground. The companies will also collaborate closely on the further development of the CarbonEdge platform.
