Momentum Sustainable Ventures LLC. During the fourth quarter of 2022, Chesapeake entered into an agreement with Momentum Sustainable Ventures LLC to build a new natural gas gathering pipeline and carbon capture and sequestration project, which will gather natural gas produced in the Haynesville Shale for re-delivery to Gulf Coast markets, including LNG export. The pipeline is expected to have an initial capacity of 1.7 Bcf/d expandable to 2.2 Bcf/d. The carbon capture portion of the project anticipates capturing and permanently sequestering up to 2.0 million tons per annum of CO2. The natural gas gathering pipeline in-service is projected for the fourth quarter of 2024, and the carbon sequestration portion of the project is subject to regulatory approvals. We have a 35% interest in the project and have committed approximately $330 million to the project through the end of 2024. We have accounted for this investment as an equity method investment and its carrying value as of December 31, 2022 was $18 million. FTS International, Inc. (FTSI). In the 2020 Predecessor Period, FTSI filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and we recognized an impairment of our entire investment of $23 million. FTSI emerged from bankruptcy on November 19, 2020, and this restructuring resulted in a reduction of the common stock we owned in FTSI from 20% to less than 2%. The decreased ownership percentage and the loss of significant influence required us to measure the investment at fair value as of December 31, 2020. In the 2021 Successor Period, FTSI announced it would be acquired in an all cash deal that closed during 2022.
