Technip Awarded Feed For Bps Uk Hydrogen Project

The latest and trending news from around the world.

# **Technip Awarded FEED for BP’s UK Hydrogen Project** ## **Introduction** TechnipFMC has been awarded a front-end engineering and design (FEED) contract by BP for the HyGreen Teesside project, a major hydrogen production facility in the UK. The FEED contract covers the hydrogen production, carbon capture and storage (CCS), and associated infrastructure. ## **Key Points** - The FEED contract is a significant step forward for the HyGreen Teesside project, which is expected to produce 1GW of low-carbon hydrogen by 2027. - TechnipFMC will provide FEED services for the hydrogen production facility, which will use autothermal reforming (ATR) technology to convert natural gas into hydrogen. - The FEED contract also includes the design of the CCS system, which will capture and store over 98% of the carbon dioxide (CO2) produced by the hydrogen production process. ## **Benefits of the Project** The HyGreen Teesside project is expected to: - Create up to 2,000 jobs during construction and operation. - Generate enough low-carbon hydrogen to heat 2 million homes. - Reduce carbon emissions by over 1 million tonnes per year. ## **Next Steps** The FEED contract is expected to be completed in 2023. Once the FEED is complete, BP will make a final investment decision (FID) on the project. If FID is positive, construction of the HyGreen Teesside project is expected to begin in 2024. ## **Conclusion** The award of the FEED contract to TechnipFMC is a major milestone in the development of the HyGreen Teesside project. The project is a key part of BP's plans to develop a global hydrogen economy and will help to reduce the UK's carbon emissions.
