Name of the Project
CO2 transport system project.
Location
France and Norway
Project Owner/s
Equinor and GRTgaz.
The companies, with their complementary skills, will cooperate in the development of their CO2 transmission and storage infrastructure and associated services: network planning, technical design and industrial safety, interoperability, regulatory aspects and institutional relations.
Project Description
The development will comprise a network of 30 km of onshore CO2 pipelines, which will connect France’s Dunkirk industrial area to Equinor’s CO2 Highway Europe pipeline project – a large-scale CO2 pipeline being planned by Equinor connecting Zeebrugge, in Belgium, to a portfolio of storage sites under the seabed off the shore of Norway.
A compressor station in Dunkirk will send the CO2 into the offshore pipeline connecting to the CO2 Highway Europe.
The capacity in the initial phase will be 3- to 5.5-million tonnes of CO2 a year, which can be expanded to also accommodate CO2 captured at other industrial clusters in France.
