Our projects in Europe

The Longship and Northern Lights projects

The Northern Lights project is part of the Norwegian full-scale CCS project called Longship which will capture CO2 from industrial sources, transport it by ship to the west of Norway, and via a pipeline to a subsea location offshore in the North Sea for permanent storage.

Could a pipeline to Norway help solve European industry’s climate problem?

In the rocks far beneath the seabed of the North Sea, conditions are perfect for storing the CO2 that Norway and Europe need to eliminate.

CO2 Highway Europe pipeline and Smeaheia

Smeaheia can be a game-changer for CO2 transport and storage in Northwestern Europe, connecting customers with the CO2 storage site in the North Sea via the CO2 Highway Europe pipeline.
