Equinor’s Post

A huge step towards the #CCUS and compacting climate change.Equinor is building bridges across Europe and offering solutions to hard abate emissions industries.It is a step towards the right direction. The IEA projects that by 2030, over 450 million tonnes of CO2 will need to be captured annually from retrofitted fossil fuel power and industrial plants. This would significantly reduce cumulative emissions. I believe to accelerate #CCUS projects markets of low carbon solution need to mature and scale up to attract more capital to close the $6 trillion gap. #climatechange #sustainability #CCUS

Construction of the HEH LNG Terminal in Stade has now started

With the infrastructure buildout phase underway, the groundwork is being laid down for the first large-scale Dutch #carboncapture and #storage (#CCS) project, known as Porthos, a joint venture between EBN B.V., Gasunie, and the Port of Rotterdam Authority. Upon completion, the brand-new infrastructure will enable the transport of CO2 in the port of #Rotterdam to depleted #gas fields in the #NorthSea.

DESFA collaborates with CORINTH PIPEWORKS for the development of the Greek part of the Natural Gas Interconnector between Greece and North Macedonia #IGNM, a new #energyroute that further upgrades the role of Greece as an energy gateway, contributing significantly to #energysecurity and the #diversification of supply sources in the country and the wider region.🔁    The contract between the two companies includes the manufacture and supply of approximately 56km of 30-inch steel pipes for the construction of the new pipeline which has the potential to carry up to 100% #hydrogen 🟢 in the future, in line with the DESFA’s strategy for the integration of #renewablegases and the acceleration of the #energytransition.🌿    #desfa #corinthpipeworks #GRgasgateway #operatingwithexcellence #enablingthefuture 

Germany’s Hanseatic Energy Hub (HEH) has begun work on its €1bn Stade terminal for liquefied natural gas (LNG) near #Hamburg. The groundbreaking ceremony took place on Friday, attended by around 200 partners and backers, including #investors from Enagás (Spain), Dow (US), and Buss Energy Group (#Germany). The facility will be Germany’s first land-based terminal for LNG. According to HEH, it will have two LNG tanks with a capacity of 240,000 cubic metres, making them the largest in #Europe. They’ll supply 13.3 billion cubic metres of natural gas a year. The #terminal is being built on an EPC basis by a consortium led by Spain’s Tecnicas Reunidas and its partners, FCC and ENKA İnşaat ve Sanayi A.Ş. Engineering for a better future. HEH commented: “To make the LNG terminal a reality by 2027, workers will have to drive around 4,600 piles into the ground” and pour “60 thousand cubic metres of #concrete, the equivalent of around 20 Olympic swimming pools”. It added that 11,000 tonnes of #structural #steelwork will be erected, weighing 1.5 times as much as the Eiffel Tower.

the economic proceeds of this new era for Mauritania and Senegal should intentionally aim at human development and financing green economies. The hope is that the financial resources will be used for the people and by the people, in transparent and participatory processes, with a strong resolve to innovate and take us beyond the routes that other countries on the continent took when becoming major fossil fuels producers. This is a turning point, a test of Governance which requires from leaders , a clear vision, a plan and the determination for transformational policies in these two countries.

🌐 DESFA's #DedicatedH2Pipeline project has been included in the 6th Projects of Common Interest (#PCIs) list by the European Commission. 🫧 The project involves the construction of a 540km long pipeline exclusively for the transmission of pure #hydrogen, stretching from the southern part of #Greece to the interconnection point with #Bulgaria where a similar #PCI project will be developed.🧩 🌿 It's more than laying pipes; it's about laying the foundations for Greece's #hydrogenbackbone, propelling the #energytransition forward and positioning the country as a leading #cleanenergycorridor to #Europe. 🌍   #DESFA #PCI #H2 #hydrogen #cleanenergy #decarbonization #energytransition

Great news on CF!

According to Drewry Shipping Consultants Ltd, more than a thousand LNG fuelled vessels will be in operation by 2027, highlighting the urgent need for robust infrastructure to cope up with the rising demand. The global LNG bunkering demand is likely to exceed 6 million tonnes in 2024, marking a staggering growth of 150% YoY.

Do you know about the Solent CO2 pipeline?   ExxonMobil's Solent CO2 project, is to help capture and store carbon in an aquifer under the English Channel, to store the equivalent amount of CO2 as taking five million petrol cars off the road would.   To get the CO2 to the aquifer, new pipelines will need to be laid from Fawley refinery, out to the Channel. Currently, three separate routes are being investigated with the hope of a preferred route being announced later this year.   Further information on the routes being considered can be found on this post. There is until the 12 September a non-statutory consultation taking place to seek public views on the three routes.    Due to its scale, the scheme will be considered a ‘Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project’ (NSIP), meaning ExxonMobil will ultimately apply to the Planning Inspectorate for a Development Consent Order (DCO) to deliver the scheme.
