BP Awards FEED Contract to Technip Energies for H2Teesside

Hydrogen production hub set to deliver clean hydrogen to industrial users

H2Teesside project is part of BP's strategy to create a decarbonized Teesside industrial cluster

Technip Energies has been awarded a contract from BP to deliver the front-end engineering design (FEED) for the H2Teesside hydrogen production hub in the UK.

The H2Teesside project will produce clean hydrogen from natural gas, using autothermal reforming technology proven at BP's world-scale Lingen green hydrogen plant in Germany.

The hydrogen will be used by industrial customers in the Teesside area, helping to decarbonize their operations and support the UK's transition to a low-carbon economy.

The FEED contract is a major milestone for the H2Teesside project, which is expected to create up to 2,000 jobs during construction and operation.

The project is part of BP's strategy to create a decarbonized Teesside industrial cluster, which will use hydrogen and carbon capture and storage (CCS) to reduce emissions by 50% by 2030.

The Teesside cluster is one of the UK's largest industrial areas, and is home to a number of major energy and chemical companies.

Benefits of the H2Teesside Project

• Produce clean hydrogen from natural gas, using proven technology.
• Supply hydrogen to industrial customers in the Teesside area, helping to decarbonize their operations.
• Create up to 2,000 jobs during construction and operation.
• Support the UK's transition to a low-carbon economy.

Key Features of the H2Teesside Project

• Capacity to produce 1 GW of hydrogen by 2030.
• Use of autothermal reforming technology, which is proven and efficient.
• Integration with carbon capture and storage (CCS) to minimize emissions.

Timeline for the H2Teesside Project

1. FEED contract awarded to Technip Energies in 2023.
2. Construction of the hydrogen production hub expected to begin in 2024.
3. Start-up of the hydrogen production hub expected in 2027.
