A third issue for him is that, in basins like the Permian, CCUS projects inject into oil formations that are no longer viable for productionat least, not with todays technology and pricing. For enhanced oil recovery (EOR) it goes in a known direction, into the pipeline. That reduces your risk greatly if you do that.
