Orion
The Orion project involves the transportation of CO2 (received from several industrial sources) from the Dimlington terminal to the depleted Amethyst gas field and to the West Sole field via offshore pipelines for permanent storage. The project will start operating in 2031 with 1 Mtpa injection capacity whereas it is foreseen to increase the injection capacity at 6 Mtpa at latter stages.
