Saipem is responsible for the offshore execution scope of the project. For Jan De Nul it is the first time we are involved in a Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) project that captures CO₂ emissions from industrial facilities before they enter the atmosphere. The CO₂ is compressed and transported through a network of pipelines to a storage location under the North Sea, where it is injected thousands of metres deep into porous rock formations.
Tom Quintelier, Project Manager at Jan De Nul: “This is a project we are very proud of at Jan De Nul. We are entering a new market that perfectly aligns with our ambition: preparing the world for tomorrow’s challenges through strong engineering and innovative solutions. With our fleet, we are actively contributing to a reliable and sustainable energy system based on renewable energy. Being able to contribute to a pioneering project with a direct and positive impact on climate change makes our story even stronger.”
Northern Endurance Partnership will capture CO₂ from the industrial areas of Teesside and Humber, on the east coast of England. We are responsible for protecting the pipeline, which has a diameter of one metre, on the seabed of the North Sea. Using our rock installation vessel Simon Stevin, we will install rock over the coming months. We do this with a vertical fall pipe system that places the rock with high precision on the seabed at depths of 30 to 60 metres.
