Expertise

Renewables Carbon Capture Fixed Wind Floating Wind Hydrogen Water Cooling Systems Decarbonisation

We are currently using our expertise in subsea risers and flowlines to develop innovative solutions for hydrogen transportation and storage. Concepts we develop typically include fixed or floating wind energy production, transportation, offshore underground storage and production using offshore fixed or floating units.

We are currently developing a design with a floater conversion and fixed platform for hydrogen production, a dynamic and static riser and flowline for transportation and reservoir storage.
