NEP is a JV between BP, Equinor, and TotalEnergies. Its infrastructure will provide CO₂ transportation and storage for the UK’s East Coast Cluster.  

The infrastructure in Teesside will support carbon capture projects such as Net Zero Teesside Power (NZT Power), H2Teesside and Teesside Hydrogen CO₂ Capture, with an expected transportation and storage volume of around four million tonnes of CO₂ per year from 2027. 

Saipem has been tasked with the installation of a 28in, approximately 145km offshore pipeline, along with landfalls and onshore outlet facilities for the NEP project.  

Additionally, Saipem will handle the engineering, procurement, construction and installation (EPCI) of the water outfall for the NZT Power project.  

NZT Power aims to become one of the first commercial-scale gas-fired power stations with carbon capture technology, capturing up to two million tonnes of CO₂ annually. 

Northern Endurance Partnership general manager Chris Daykin said: “The Northern Endurance Partnership’s CO₂ pipelines are essential to connect carbon-intensive projects to offshore storage and would play an important role in helping the region pursue its net-zero plan.” 

The proposed contract awards are part of eight EPCI contract packages, valued at a combined £4bn, to be offered by NEP and NZT Power.  

Other potential contract awardees include Wood for integrated project management, Genesis for offshore systems engineering, and Costain for the onshore CO₂ gathering system and gas connection. 

The finalisation of these contracts is contingent upon obtaining necessary regulatory approvals and positive final investment decisions on the projects, expected by September 2024 or earlier.
