Petrofac awarded more work on Dutch carbon capture and storage project

UK energy services company Petrofac has won a multi-million-dollar front-end engineering design (FEED) contract for the Aramis CO2 capture and storage project in the Netherlands.

Petrofac’s work scope involves decommissioning topsides and installing a new repurposed injection platform connecting to the Aramis CO2 distribution network.

The contract follows the award of a FEED to Petrofac earlier this year covering the design of the CO2 trunkline, including onshore, landfall and offshore sections, together with the offshore distribution hub platform for the Aramis system.

The Aramis project is a collaboration between TotalEnergies, Shell, Energie Beheer Nederland (EBN) and Gasunie that aims to enable Dutch industrial sectors to transport CO2 to depleted offshore gas fields under the North Sea.

Commenting on the latest contract, John Pearson, chief operating officer for energy transition projects at Petrofac, said: “This award demonstrates confidence in our abilities to provide vital engineering and project delivery expertise to projects that span the CCS value chain.  This project, associated with the overall Aramis development, is another key component to the Netherlands’ ambitions to capture millions of tonnes of CO2 from industrial emitters in the region.”
