- The project aims to increase CO2 handling capacity to over 5 million tonnes per year by 2028.
- Northern Lights is a joint venture between Equinor, Shell, and TotalEnergies.
- The award was recorded in Q3 2025 in the Technology, Products & Services segment.
Project Overview
Technip Energies has been contracted to supply three fully electric marine loading arms for the second phase of the Northern Lights CO2 transport and storage project in Øygarden, Norway. This phase will enhance the terminal's capacity to handle over 5 million tonnes of CO2 annually by 2028.
Technological Advancements
The loading solution will be installed at the new Northern Lights jetty and will feature a fully electric design, eliminating the use of hydraulics. This innovation sets a new industry benchmark in operability, safety, and environmental performance.
Background and Partnerships
Northern Lights is a joint venture between Equinor, Shell, and TotalEnergies. It is the world's first open-access, cross-border CO2 transport and storage infrastructure, receiving liquefied CO2 from European industrial sites for offshore storage beneath the seabed.
Timeline and Milestones
The first phase of the project, which included the delivery of the world's first liquefied CO2 marine loading arms, began operations in summer 2025. The award for the second phase was recorded in Q3 2025 in the Technology, Products & Services segment.
