Challenge

The new terminal from Linde Gas delivers CO2 extracted as a by-product from other industrial processes, directly to customers. 

The project addressed the challenge of transporting CO₂ at –40°C safely and efficiently. This requires innovative engineering to handle extreme temperatures, pipeline contraction, and site adjustments, all while ensuring compliance with strict safety and regulatory standards. 

To meet these demands, Process Engineering handled the entire technical part of establishing the CO2 terminal. This included preparation of pipe design, updating the PID (Piping and Instrumentation Diagram), and design and calculation of the one-and-a-half-kilometre-long pipe to transport the CO2 from the wharf to the terminal. 

Solution

Process Engineering participated with a dedicated team consisting of a project manager, project engineer, and technical designers, taking full responsibility for the project’s technical scope.  

Process Engineering designed the pipeline, verified its dimensions to meet the required capacity, and prepared the tender material. During installation and commissioning, the team participated on site, providing technical support such as line walks and supervision of the installation work. Moreover, Process Engineering contributed to the Safety Integrity Level classification by reviewing all equipment for the terminal to ensure correct safety standards, assisted with third-party approval under the Pressure Equipment Directive, and prepared the plant’s user manual.  

A particular challenge arose when the location of the pipe at the wharf was changed. This meant that the pipe end was not long enough for the ship to connect to the terminal. Therefore, Process Engineering designed custom-made pipe carriages with flanges that are manually rolled out, ensuring optimal alignment for the ship.  

Result

Today, CO2 at Lindø’s Terminal Nord is unloaded once a week, operating as a reliable link between industrial by-product capture and enduse. It demonstrates how tailored engineering solutions can turn logistical challenges into efficient supply infrastructure.
