## Answer
Quick answer The federal 45Q tax credit pays operators a per-ton credit for permanently injecting CO2 underground, and it is reshaping the economics of Mississippi's Jackson Dome CO2 supply and the Denbury-legacy CO2 floods around it. For mineral and royalty owners on those enhanced-oil-recovery floods, the credit can affect operator activity and the value of future production.
