Yokogawa Europe awarded tender for FEED phase of Aramis CCS project

A collaboration between several large energy companies, the Aramis project aims to contribute to the reduction of CO₂ emissions for hard-to-abate industries by providing CO₂ transport to unlock storage capacity for the industry. The CO₂ will be stored in depleted offshore gas fields, deep under the North Sea.

Yokogawa Europe, together with Yokogawa Group company KBC and French engineering firm Ekium, will carry out the FEED study of the integrated control and safety system (ICSS), telecoms, and system integration that covers the control room, CO₂ pipeline, and distribution platform for the Aramis project. This backbone will provide the large-scale infrastructure needed to transport CO₂ captured from various industrial companies out to the individual injection platforms and depleted gas fields. The FEED design is expected to be ready in 2024. The Aramis project aims to transport and store about 5 million tpy of CO₂ in the start-up phase, with a final capacity of 22 million tpy through phased expansion beyond 2030.

The project’s location in the Port of Rotterdam, the Netherlands, makes the CO₂ transport and storage service accessible to various industrial clusters, and it will cooperate with other CCS projects in the Port, such as Porthos, a project for CO₂ transport and storage, and CO₂next, an open-access storage terminal for liquid CO₂.
