John Crane provides dry gas seals for landmark UK CCS project

As part of the project scope, John Crane is delivering six Type 28XP Dry Gas Seals for use in centrifugal compressors at a new CO₂ compression facility in North Wales. These compressors are a key part of the infrastructure required to transport and permanently store carbon dioxide captured from industrial plants across the North West of England and North Wales.
The company is delivering six Type 28XP Dry Gas Seals for use in centrifugal compressors at a new CO₂ compression facility located in North Wales. These compressors are a key part of the infrastructure required to transport and permanently store carbon dioxide captured from industrial plants across the North West of England and North Wales.
The CCS facility will serve as a critical enabler of the UK’s energy transition, acting as a central hub for CO₂ transportation and storage under the seabed in depleted offshore fields.
“This project reinforces John Crane’s commitment to advancing the energy transition through reliable engineering,” said Philippe Lambert, vice president, Sales and Aftermarket at John Crane. “We’re honoured to support this landmark development with our proven sealing technologies, helping to accelerate industrial decarbonisation in the UK and beyond.”
