This bill modifies the existing Section 45Q tax credit for carbon oxide sequestration to ensure parity between different uses of captured carbon. It restructures the credit tiers, eliminating a separate lower credit for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and instead providing a single credit amount for carbon oxide that is either securely stored geologically or used in EOR with subsequent storage. It also updates inflation adjustment mechanisms and conforming references.

The bill eliminates the separate, lower credit tier for carbon oxide used as a tertiary injectant in enhanced oil recovery (EOR), effectively raising the credit value for that use to match the credit for secure geological storage. Occidental Petroleum is a major player in carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) and EOR. The bill language modifies Section 45Q(a)(3) to include EOR with storage as a qualifying use under the same credit tier as disposal.
