As industry answers the call to transition away from hydrocarbons E3 plays an integral role

Carbon Capture

Carbon capture techniques remove Carbon Dioxide emissions from their emission source to prevent green house gases from entering the atmosphere. Some carbon capture techniques can even pull Carbon Dioxide straight from the atmosphere. Once the carbon is captured, it has to be sequestered. This is often done by pumping the captured carbon into underground storage. This requires transporting the carbon from the source, to a suitable injection site. E3 can convert existing steel lines to carbon transport lines.

Benefits of pipe in pipe replacement

In addition to being cheaper and faster, there are Enviornmental benefits to pipe in pipe replacement. New pipeline construction requires disturbing large swaths of land and requires significant equipment. Disturbing long stretches of earth releases carbon that is held in the soil. The many pieces of construction equipment required also release emissions of their own.

E3 only disturbs small areas to access the original pipe and uses minimal equipment to do so. The Canadian province of British Columbia has estimated a 75% reduction in carbon footprint for pipe in pipe replacement versus new construction.

In addition to carbon reduction, there are social benefits as well. New pipeline construction disturbs the land of everyone it crosses. Operators compensate landowners for this disruption and take great efforts to return the land to its original condition but this can be avoided with our techniques, increasing goodwill and cost savings.
