 City complex is expected to cost approximately $100 million over the life of the project. At Yazoo City, CCS is expected to commence in 2028 and annually will sequester up to approximately 500,000 metric tons of CO2 that would otherwise have been emitted to the atmosphere. 

Blue Point joint venture

On April 8, 2025, we announced that we formed a joint venture, Blue Point Number One, LLC, with JERA Co., Inc. (JERA), Japan’s largest energy company, and Mitsui & Co., Ltd. (Mitsui), a leading global investment and trading company, for the construction, production and offtake of low-carbon ammonia. Upon formation, we held 40% ownership, JERA held 35% ownership, and Mitsui held 25% ownership in the joint venture. Under the terms of the joint venture’s limited liability company agreement, JERA has a conditional option to reduce its ownership percentage that expires on December 31, 2025. If the specified condition is met, JERA can reduce its ownership below 35% but not lower than 20%. We would have the right and obligation to increase our ownership by the same amount that JERA reduces its ownership.

At our Blue Point complex in Ascension Parish, Louisiana, the Blue Point joint venture is expected to construct an autothermal reforming (ATR) ammonia production facility with a CO2 dehydration and compression unit to prepare captured

CO2 for transportation and sequestration. Pre-construction activities and engineering evaluations at our Blue Point complex will begin in 2025. Construction of the ammonia production facility is expected to begin in 2026, with low-carbon ammonia production expected to begin in 2029. We will be responsible for the development, operation and maintenance of the ammonia production facility under contracts with the Blue Point joint venture. The three companies will offtake product according to their ownership percentages.

We estimate that the cost of the low-carbon ATR ammonia production facility with CCS technologies will be approximately $4 billion. We anticipate that approximately one-third of the estimated cost is related to materials that will be imported to the United States, with the majority of imported materials expected to arrive in Louisiana in 2028. Pursuant to periodic joint venture capital calls, the joint venture members will divide the cost of the facility’s engineering, procurement and construction according to their ownership percentages.
