Study confirms hydrogen pipeline from GCC to Europe is feasible

A pipeline crossing the Mediterranean to transport the MENA’s abundant hydrogen supplies to Europe sounds fanciful and cost-ineffective, but a new study has found that such a project could be feasible.

An ambitious project connecting Europe with the Middle East’s low-carbon hydrogen supplies through a deep-sea pipeline would be not only feasible, but could unlock the region’s immense green energy potential according to a landmark study from AFRY Management Consulting – the consulting arm of global engineering group AFRY.

The proposed pipeline would originate in Qatar, before crossing Saudi Arabia and Egypt and entering Europe via the Mediterranean, then scatter across Central European countries.
