The project is being constructed to capture, compress and transport by pipeline one million tonnes a year of carbon dioxide to an offshore gas reservoir for long-term storage beneath the North Sea.
The contract scope includes a grassroots carbon capture and compression plant and modifications to an existing combined cycle gas turbine power plant, according to Technip.
Technip’s operating centre in Milton Keynes will execute the FEED for this next phase, which executed a pre-FEED study for the Peterhead CCS project about 18 months ago.
Technip process technology senior vice president Stan Knez said, "Technip is committed to the development of innovative, sustainable solutions for our customers and we look forward to expanding our footprint into the carbon capture and sequestration value chain."
