Louisiana HB1136 prohibits carbon dioxide sequestration pipelines from sharing rights-of-way with petroleum pipelines.

Louisiana HB1136 introduces a new law that prohibits the transport of carbon dioxide for sequestration in the same right-of-way as petroleum pipelines. This means that pipelines designed to transport carbon dioxide for storage purposes cannot be located in the same area as those used for transporting petroleum products. This measure aims to ensure safety and prevent potential conflicts or hazards between different types of pipeline operations.
