Energy services provider Expro has been appointed to deliver integrated well testing services for the UK’s first offshore carbon capture and storage (CCS) project, being developed by a joint venture of BP, Equinor and TotalEnergies.

Being developed around 75 kilometers east of Flamborough Head, the Northern Endurance Partnership (NEP) project will comprise an onshore CO2 gathering network, compression facilities and a 145-kilometer offshore pipeline connected to subsea injection facilities in the Endurance saline aquifer located around 1,000 meters below the seabed.
