Halliburton, a multinational oil and gas service provider, has announced that it has been awarded a contract to provide completions, liners, and monitoring products and services for the carbon capture and storage (CCS) system within the HyNet North West project in the Liverpool Bay, UK. The HyNet North West project aims to reduce carbon emissions in the UK by applying CCS to transport carbon dioxide captured from industry and store it in depleted reservoirs underneath Liverpool Bay. This project marks the first CCS project commissioned in the UK.
Halliburton will manufacture and deliver equipment from its UK completion manufacturing center in Arbroath. The company’s expertise will be used to develop and deliver innovative well completions and monitoring solutions for this groundbreaking CCS project. Jean Marc Lopez, Europe, Eurasia and Sub Saharan African (EESSA) Region vice president at Halliburton, said, “This project provides a great opportunity to expand our completions activity and showcase Halliburton’s leadership in CCS projects. We look forward to providing our services to support the HyNet project.”
The carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology is crucial in the fight against climate change as it captures carbon dioxide emissions from industrial processes and stores them safely underground. The HyNet North West project is expected to reduce carbon emissions by up to 10 million tonnes per year by 2030, helping the UK to achieve its carbon emissions targets.
