Leading providers of cutting-edge integrity solutions, ROSEN (UK) Ltd has secured a major contract to provide design verification and subsea engineering support for one of the UK’s most significant carbon capture projects.
This work is part of a groundbreaking initiative that will play a crucial role in decarbonising North West England and North Wales, helping to cut regional carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions by 25% starting in the mid-2020s.
The initative aims to create a low-carbon future by capturing and securely storing CO₂ from heavy industries while also delivering locally produced, low-carbon hydrogen to power businesses, transport, and homes. By developing a carbon capture and hydrogen infrastructure, the project will boost energy security, safeguard jobs, and create new opportunities for skilled workers across the region.
As part of this contract, ROSEN(UK) Ltd. will conduct comprehensive design verification of the project’s CO₂ transportation pipelines, ensuring they meet the highest safety, reliability, and performance standards. ROSEN’s engineering expertise will be key in supporting the client reengineer and repurpose pipelines for carbon storage. This collaboration, which began in early 2025, marks the start of a two-year partnership, with potential for further projects as the UK accelerates its transition to net-zero emissions.
Gordon Blair, business development manager at ROSEN(UK) Ltd., commented: “We are proud to be part of a project that is shaping the future of the UK’s energy sector. Our deep expertise in pipeline verification and subsea engineering ensures the infrastructure supporting carbon capture is both safe and efficient.”
Bryn Roberts, technical manager at ROSEN(UK) Ltd. commented: “This iniative is a game-changer for industrial decarbonisation, and we look forward to continuing our role in delivering a more sustainable future.”
With decades of experience in pipeline integrity, design validation, and risk assessment, ROSEN is uniquely positioned to support the growth of carbon capture and hydrogen technology. This contract reinforces the company’s commitment to driving innovation in the energy transition and supporting large-scale projects that help industries reduce their carbon footprint.
