The Fengcheng oilfield project designed and operated by BaseMoF devoted to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions in oil and gas industries has been successfully commensed into operation. This is the first carbon capture project with MOFs solution in China, also counted as the world's largest single MOFs solution carbon capture project.

Fengcheng Oilfield Operation Area is the largest ultra-thick oil field in China, which adopts the open process of ultra-thick oil thermal recovery at the beginning of construction. In order to solve the problem of disorganized emission of part of steam and associated gas in the process of ultra-thick oil extraction, as well as the related environmental pollution and resource recycling and reuse problems, Basemof has developed and designed MOFs slurry method carbon capture project. The project has a design load of 150,000 m3/day, an annual recovery of 30 million m3 of natural gas, an annual production of 50,000 tons of liquid carbon dioxide, and a comprehensive carbon emission reduction of more than 100,000 tons.

Fengcheng Oilfield Project

The Fengcheng Oilfield project, which started construction in July 2023 and formally operated on December 15, has performed well in terms of separation efficiency and energy consumption indexes, marking that the internationally leading second-generation carbon capture technology has been commercially applied in China.

Compared with traditional carbon capture methods, the Basemof MOF capture program has outstanding advantages in terms of reducing the initial investment in the project, lowering the power consumption of the operation, and is more safe and environmentally friendly, which makes the large-scale application of low-concentration carbon dioxide capture a reality.

Basemof is an innovative science and technology company with pioneering spirit in the oil and gas field. Its independent research and development of absorption and adsorption coupled gas separation technology based on MOFs (Metal-organic Frameworks), as a second-generation carbon capture technology, can effectively promote the domestic CCUS industry to realize the low-energy consumption of carbon dioxide capture and utilization, and has demonstrated outstanding potentials in the separation of natural gas ethane, which provides an innovative scientific and technological solution for combating climate change.
