Halliburton to support NEP's CCS project in UK
Under this contract, the company will deliver completions and downhole monitoring services.
The equipment necessary for the CCS project will be primarily manufactured at Halliburton's UK completion manufacturing facility in Arbroath, Scotland.
This facility has been instrumental in backing North Sea operations for more than five decades, offering manufacturing capabilities and on-site product development and testing resources.
Halliburton Europe, Eurasia and sub-Saharan Africa senior vice-president Jean-Marc Lopez said: 'Halliburton is pleased to develop and deliver innovative well completions and monitoring solutions for this groundbreaking carbon storage project.
'This project allows expansion of our completions activity and showcases Halliburton's leadership in CCS projects. We look forward to the opportunity to deliver our services to support the NEP project.'
The NEP infrastructure is engineered to oversee a CO₂ collection network, onshore compression facilities, a 145-km offshore pipeline, and subsea injection and monitoring systems for the Endurance saline aquifer. It is situated roughly 1,000m beneath the sea floor.
The system aims to transport and permanently store up to an initial four million tonnes per annum of CO₂.
NEP, established in 2020 as the ECC's CO₂ transportation and storage provider, is a joint venture (JV) comprising Equinor, bp and TotalEnergies.
The JV will manage the transport and storage of CO₂ emissions from the industrial clusters of Teesside and Humber.
Earlier in the year, Halliburton also secured a five-year contract with Repsol Resources UK to improve the full well life cycle at Repsol's platform assets in the UK North Sea.
"Halliburton to support NEP's CCS project in UK" was originally created and published by Offshore Technology, a GlobalData owned brand.

Bank of England set to cut rate as UK economy weakens
The Bank of England is widely expected to cut its key interest rate Thursday, with policymakers mindful of US tariffs and their potential risks to an already-struggling UK economy. With the BoE likely to trim borrowing costs by a quarter point to 4.0 percent, focus will be on potential changes to the central bank's economic growth and inflation outlooks. "There are clear signs of (UK) economic deterioration, particularly stemming from the labour market," Victoria Scholar, head of investment at Interactive Investor, noted ahead of the latest rate call. "Yet policymakers must weigh this up against the risk of inflationary pressures particularly with rising food prices and international uncertainty around (US President Donald) Trump's tariffs and volatility in energy markets." Against this backdrop, analysts expect splits within the Bank's Monetary Policy Committee. Some argue that while the majority of the nine policymakers, including governor Andrew Bailey, will vote for a quarter-point cut, some are likely to demand an even larger reduction and others no change. A quarter-point cut Thursday would be the BoE's fifth such reduction since starting a trimming cycle in August 2024, emphasising its "gradual" approach to reducing rates. The BoE's main task is to keep Britain's annual inflation rate at 2.0 percent but the latest official data showed it had jumped unexpectedly to an 18-month high in June. The Consumer Prices Index increased to 3.6 percent as motor fuel and food prices stayed high. - Weak economy - Latest official figures also show that Britain's economy unexpectedly contracted for a second month running in May and UK unemployment is at a near four-year high of 4.7 percent. This is largely down to Prime Minister Keir Starmer's Labour government increasing a UK business tax from April, the same month that the country became subject to Trump's 10-percent baseline tariff on most goods. London and Washington reached an agreement in May to cut levies of more than 10 percent imposed by Trump on certain UK-made items imported by the United States, notably vehicles. Last month, the BoE warned in a report that tariff unpredictability and Middle East conflicts pose risks to UK financial stability. The US Federal Reserve last week kept interest rates unchanged, defying strong political pressure from Trump to slash borrowing costs in a bid to boost the world's biggest economy. Asked about US tariffs following the decision, Fed Chair Jerome Powell told a press conference: "We're still a ways away from seeing where things settle down." The European Central Bank is meanwhile widely expected to keep rates unchanged at its next meeting, with eurozone inflation around the ECB's two-percent target. But that could change, according to some economists, based on how Trump's tariffs affect the single-currency bloc. bcp/ajb/rl/tc Error in retrieving data Sign in to access your portfolio Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data

Ex-Man Utd coach reveals extra incentive for Liverpool to sign Newcastle star Alexander Isak
Liverpool target striker Isak Newcastle holding firm Reds can win "treble" with striker Follow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱 WHAT HAPPENED? Ever since Isak informed Newcastle that he wanted to leave the club, Liverpool have been actively trying to sign the Sweden international. Amid this transfer saga, ex-United coach Meulensteen believes the Reds will be a force to be reckoned with if they can snap up the services of the 25-year-old this summer. He also explained where the Red Devils have gone wrong in recent times, in stark contrast to their Merseyside rivals. WHAT MEULENSTEEN SAID He told Poker Strategy: "If Liverpool manage to get the Alexander Isak deal over the line, I think they'd be looking at winning the treble next season; that's how powerful they'll be. I'd be shocked if Liverpool weren't there or thereabouts next season in terms of the league title. It just goes to show the difference between Liverpool and Man United. Years ago, a clear philosophy of what Liverpool wanted to achieve was installed and Jurgen Klopp firmly planted the seeds of how he wanted the team to play – high intensity and high octane football. The most decisive factor in Liverpool's success is that they've recruited the perfect manager to succeed Klopp. That's exactly where Man United have gone wrong – on several occasions. Arne Slot has built on everything Klopp left to him, with some slight tweaks here and there. Slot has brought in some great players and the club have been very efficient in the transfer window so far. That's everything Man United have done badly in the last decade." THE BIGGER PICTURE Isak is said to be valued at up to £150 million ($200m) by Newcastle, a figure Liverpool may not be willing to reach. The Reds won the Premier League title at a canter last season and if they had the former Real Sociedad man at their disposal, another treble tilt could be within their grasp. WHAT NEXT? Time is running out for Liverpool to sign Isak, and Newcastle to find a possible replacement, as there are just over three weeks left of the summer transfer window. Time will tell if a deal can be thrashed out in the coming weeks.

Pictures: Manchester United players move into stunning new-look Carrington
Manchester United have confirmed that Ruben Amorim and his players returned to a new and revamped Carrington training facility on Wednesday morning. Carrington undergoes improvements Last year, United confirmed that they had initiated work on an ambitious £50m project that would see Carrington be transformed into a 'world-class' complex. A big part of Sir Jim Ratcliffe's bid to become co-owner of United was to invest heavily in improving United's infrastructure after several years of neglect and pitiful management by the Glazer family. Award-winning and Manchester-born architect Lord Norman Foster was hired to oversee the renovations at Carrington. United noted that they planned to revamp the gym, medical, nutrition and recovery areas and insisted there was 'a design emphasis on creating more space for collaboration and innovation among players and staff.' The project ran throughout the entire 2024/25 season and was set to officially open just before the start of the upcoming campaign. Last week, Amorim said about the redeveloped Carrington, 'It's like a new start with different standards and I think to go to our building, to the new building is like a fresh start.' 'So, I think the timing is completely perfect to do everything. The good thing is that everybody's aligned what we need to do and now it's to win games, game by game try to win every game and the performance are really important as well.' Now, United have announced that the players have returned to a new-look Carrington following the completion of their United States pre-season tour. United players return to new-look Carrington The club relayed in a statement, 'While away in the States, the refurbishment of our Carrington training complex was completed and the players have now moved in.' 'The innovative new facility will officially open with a ribbon-cutting event on Friday.' The post below features some photos of the players inside the upgraded facility. United also teased the Carrington's opening on social media. United are back in action on Saturday when they take on Fiorentina in their final pre-season clash before the Premier League campaign kicks off.
