Crossroads

BP intends to develop Project Crossroads as a geologic storage hub located around its Whiting Refinery to help with the decarbonization of northwestern Indiana. It is proposed that up to 23 million Mt of CO2 per year will be stored in the storage hub. Four characterization wells will be drilled across the project area, which includes Indiana, Illinois, and Michigan. Each well will focus on characterizing the Upper Mt. Simon Sandstone. For two well locations, an UIC Class VI permit will be prepared and filed. The completed project will consist of multiple CO2 storage facilities linked by more than 100 miles of new pipeline. BP cancelled the project in 2025.
