Toyo-India has been appointed by EET Fuels for the Stanlow carbon capture project

The work for the Stanlow Refinery CCS project has been awarded to Toyo-India who will oversee various tasks. These will include design completion, project de-risking, detailed costing analysis, as well as other vital work.

Currently, the EET Fuels’ industrial carbon capture project has been able to progress to the FEED stage. Once the completion of FEED for the project has occurred, the company will be able to go ahead and take the final investment decision (FID) on the ICC project. It is predicted that the ICC project will be able to capture one million tons of CO2 every year, whilst simultaneously removing an estimated 45% of all Stanlow emissions. The project has already applied for the right to negotiate with the UK Government for a revenue support mechanism as part of the Department of Energy Security and Net Zero’s Track one expansion programme within the CCUS cluster sequencing process. Within this process the date for the final investment decision will be decided on.

The progression of this project underlines the Company’s momentum around achieving its target of reducing CO2 emissions at the Stanlow Refinery by 95% by 2030. It also highlights the company’s commitment to creatin the UK’s leading energy transition hub.

This ICC project is expected to be finished by 2028 and once it is complete, it will work through capturing carbon dioxide emitted from Stanlow refinery’s full-residue fluid catalytic (FCC) unit, which is well-known and one of Europe’s largest units. Due to Stanlow’s unique location, the carbon dioxide that is captured will be able to use a repurposed existing gas transportation network, to be permanently sequestered into depleted gas fields within Liverpool Bay, as part of the HyNet industrial decarbonisation cluster, located in the North West of England.

CEO, EET Fuels, Deepak Maheshwari, commented, “Our ambitious carbon capture and storage plans are a key component of Stanlow, securing the future of the refinery for generations to come and vastly reducing industrial carbon emissions in the North West. This announcement represents a significant milestone as we work to become the world’s first low carbon process refinery, and we look forward to working with Toyo-India to keep momentum towards achieving FID for this project.”
