Technip Energies wins FEED contract for BP’s H2Teesside

EPCC prize in company’s sights for what will be one of the UK’s largest low-carbon hydrogen production facilities

 

French contractor Technip Energies has been awarded the front-end engineering design (FEED) contract for BP’s H2Teesside project in the UK.

H2Teesside is expected to be one of the UK’s largest low-carbon hydrogen production facilities — fully integrated with carbon capture technology.

As part of the FEED study, Technip Energies will deliver a comprehensive design utilising its in-house expertise and global best practices to design large scale project, integrating hydrogen and carbon capture technologies.

In the perspective of a 2025 final investment decision, the next step for the contractor, if selected, would be to provide the full engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning (EPCC) package for the project.

The project is targeting 1.2 gigawatts of low-carbon hydrogen production, which equates to more than 10% of the UK’s 2030 hydrogen production target. Also, it could capture and send for storage more than 2 million tonnes per annum of CO2.

As part of the East Coast Cluster, the integrated H2Teesside hydrogen production and hydrogen distribution pipeline will integrate with other decarbonisation projects in the region. The CO2 captured from the H2Teesside facility will be exported to the Northern Endurance Partnership (NEP) CO2 gathering system.

Andy Lane, vice president for hydrogen and CCUS at BP, UK, said: “These agreements mark further critical milestones for H2Teesside as the project continues to move towards EPC contracts and then construction. The project could play a critical role in decarbonising industry on Teesside, helping to transform the region into a leading hydrogen hub and kickstart the UK’s low carbon hydrogen economy.”

Technip Energies, which did not divulge the value of its FEED contract, added that the H2Teesside project could also support economic development, jobs creation and regeneration of the Teesside region.
