Technip Energies Loading Systems has secured a contract to supply three fully electric marine loading arms for phase 2 of the Northern Lights CO₂ transport and storage project in Øygarden, Norway, the company said in a news release.
The equipment will be installed at the new Northern Lights jetty and is fully qualified for transferring liquefied CO₂. According to the company, the second phase will feature a fully electric design that eliminates hydraulics, which it describes as a first-of-a-kind solution intended to improve operability, safety and environmental performance.
The award follows the delivery of the world’s first liquefied CO₂ marine loading arms for phase 1, which began operating in summer 2025.
Phase 2 is expected to lift the terminal’s capacity to more than 5 million tonnes of CO₂ per year by 2028. The technology has been technically qualified and selected based on its performance, with Technip Energies stating it demonstrates its ability to bring field-ready innovation to the CCS market.
Northern Lights, a joint venture of Equinor, Shell and TotalEnergies, operates what it describes as the world’s first open-access, cross-border CO₂ transport and storage infrastructure. The terminal receives liquefied CO₂ from European industrial sources, stores it temporarily and transports it offshore for permanent geological storage. The contract was recorded in Q3 2025 in Technip Energies’ Technology, Products & Services segment.
Technip Energies is a publicly listed engineering and technology company headquartered in France and traded on Euronext Paris, with additional American Depositary Receipts traded over the counter in the United States. It operates globally across technology, engineering and project delivery disciplines.
