Gulf-to-Europe hydrogen pipe feasible, consultants claim

A hydrogen pipeline carrying 2.5 million tonnes per year from the Gulf to Europe would be feasible, according to a new study.

RINA and Afry carried out the study. Such a “transformative opportunity” would unlock the Gulf’s potential to provide low-carbon hydrogen – green or blue – to Europe.

The concept covers a pipeline from Qatar to Saudi Arabia, then on to Egypt and crossing the Mediterranean Sea. The plan “may seem ambitious”, the consultants said, but it would be feasible.
