“In April, 1PointFive signed a landmark 25-year carbon offtake agreement with CF Industries and its partners for their planned low-carbon ammonia facility in Louisiana.”
Occidental's 1PointFive unit signed a 25-year carbon offtake deal with CF Industries, supporting CO2 transport and storage for CF's low-carbon ammonia facility at Oxy's Pelican hub.
“we have advanced our pilot project with POET, the world's largest producer of biofuels and with retailers in the U.S. to enable the production of low-carbon ethanol.”
CF's pilot with POET, described as the world's largest biofuels producer, aims to build a low-carbon ammonia/fertilizer supply chain for low-carbon ethanol production.

“They've talked about with Petrobras bringing several of those plants back online, that's going to take some time.”
Restart of Brazilian urea capacity by Petrobras would add competing nitrogen supply, but CF expects it to be slow, supporting a tight global balance.
“For the Blue Point project, we, along with JERA and Mitsui, have been building out the project team and have begun ordering long lead time items.”
Mitsui is a partner in CF's Blue Point ultra-low-carbon ammonia JV alongside JERA.

“The one thing I would mention is Exxon was granted a draft Class 6 permit for its Rose-CCS project in July and the comment period for that with the EPA ended earlier this week.”
CF relies on ExxonMobil's Rose CCS project (Class 6 permit) to permanently sequester CO2 captured at Donaldsonville; Exxon's permit progress underpins CF's low-carbon ammonia economics.
“the joint venture signed an agreement with industry leader, Linde, to build and operate the air separation unit which will supply nitrogen and oxygen for the ammonia production process.”
CF's Blue Point ammonia JV contracted Linde to build and operate its air separation unit supplying nitrogen and oxygen, a new industrial-gas supply win for Linde.
“also the purchases that come into the U.K. and also our LSB agreement where we purchased some of their ammonia tons, and then additionally, our point leases”
CF purchases ammonia tons from LSB Industries under an existing agreement, contributing to elevated COGS this quarter.
“we have an ongoing active dialogue with our partner, ExxonMobil. And they have a number of different alternatives, and different permits that are in kind of advanced stages.”
ExxonMobil is CF's partner for carbon dioxide storage tied to the Donaldsonville carbon capture and sequestration project, with permitting options still being finalized.
CF Industries delivered record full-year adjusted EBITDA of approximately $2.9 billion with Q4 EPS of $2.59, as nitrogen prices remained well above the global cost curve. Revenue grew 23% year-over-year for the quarter.
