Technip Awarded FEED for BP’s UK Hydrogen Project

BP has awarded Technip Energies the FEED contract for H2Teesside, a low-carbon hydrogen project in the U.K.

H2Teesside is expected to be one of the U.K.’s largest low-carbon hydrogen production facilities, fully integrated with carbon capture technology, Technip said Aug. 27.

Alongside integrating other decarbonization projects in the region, captured CO₂ from the facility will be exported to the Northern Endurance Partnership CO₂ gathering system.

The project is targeting 1.2 gigawatts of low-carbon hydrogen production, which equates to more than 10% of the U.K.’s 2030 hydrogen production target, Technip said.

Technip added that H2Teesside could capture and send over 2 million tonnes of CO₂ per year for storage, equivalent to the emissions caused from heating 1 million U.K. homes.

As part of the FEED study, Technip will design a large-scale project, integrating hydrogen and carbon capture technologies.

If selected, Technip will provide the full engineering procurement, construction and commissioning for the project to make a 2025 final investment decision.
