The Northern Endurance Partnership (NEP) is developing onshore and offshore infrastructure needed to transport CO2 from carbon capture projects across Teesside and the Humber – collectively known as the East Coast Cluster - to secure storage under the North Sea.
The infrastructure is crucial to achieving net zero in the UK’s most carbon intensive industrial regions.
NEP, via the Endurance saline aquifer and adjacent stores, has access to upto 1 billion tonnes of CO₂. storage capacity.
NEP is in an incorporated joint venture established solely to develop and operate CO₂ transportation and storage infrastructure on behalf of the NEP Shareholders – bp, Equinor and TotalEnergies.

NEP is in the execution phase of the Teesside Carbon Capture Pipeline, the infrastructure to transport CO₂ from industrial carbon capture projects across Teesside to a compression facility and out to the Endurance carbon store via an offshore pipeline. NEP expects building to start by the middle of 2025 with commercial operations planned to start in 2028.
NEP is also progressing development work for the Humber Carbon Capture Pipeline the proposed infrastructure that would transport CO2 from carbon capture projects in the Humber region to secure offshore storage under the North Sea. The infrastructure would enable a connection to carbon capture projects in the Humber selected by DESNZ through the East Coast Cluster expansion process.
The Northern Endurance Partnership enables the East Coast Cluster, one of the first two carbon capture, usage, and storage (CCUS) clusters to be taken forward by the UK Government.
Covering the industrial powerhouse regions of Teesside, and the Humber, the East Coast Cluster includes a diverse mix of carbon capture projects, including industrial carbon capture, low-carbon hydrogen production, negative emissions power, and power with carbon capture.
Carbon capture, usage and storage (CCUS) is a process which captures carbon dioxide emissions from industrial processes and power generation and transports them to secure storage areas. The Committee on Climate Change, the independent advisor to UK Government, has stated that CCUS is a necessity not an option to meet net zero for the UK.
