Flowserve Corporation (NYSE: FLS) (“Flowserve” or the “Company”), a leading provider of flow control products and services for the global infrastructure markets, has been awarded a contract to supply Dry Gas Seals and Dry Gas Seal Systems to support a groundbreaking initiative for Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (“ADNOC”), the state-owned oil and gas company of the United Arab Emirates. The initiative will be accomplished through Flowserve’s collaboration with Celeros Flow Technology (“Celeros”), a major force in the flow control technology space providing solutions that deliver outstanding performance while minimizing environmental impacts.

In 2023, ADNOC announced the development of one of the largest carbon capture projects in the Middle East and North Africa region that will enable the capture and storage of 1.5 million tons of carbon dioxide (CO₂) annually, which is the equivalent to the emission of more than 326,000 vehicles. The project is a part of ADNOC’s wider decarbonization strategy and involves the installation of two high-pressure injection packages in ADNOC’s Habshan gas plant. Flowserve will provide Dry Gas Seals and Dry Gas Seal Systems that will be integrated into the high-pressure injection packages supplied by Celeros. This will pioneer the first-ever continuous supercritical CO₂ (sCO₂) pump injection services for enhanced oil recovery in the market.

“Undertaking a project like this requires ingenuity and close collaboration to navigate complex technical challenges and ensure this system will be efficient, functional and reliable,” said Lamar Duhon, President, Flowserve Pumps Division. “We are thrilled that through our team’s expertise, along with our joint efforts with Celeros, we have developed a revolutionary solution that exemplifies the dynamic capabilities of our sealing solutions. Guided by our 3D strategy to diversify, decarbonize and digitize, we are excited to be a part of ADNOC’s ambitious decarbonization journey, furthering both Flowserve’s and Celeros’ commitment to helping the world reduce carbon emissions."

Once the initiative is fully operational, the injection packages, which feature Celeros’ advanced high-pressure BB5 pump technology, will handle the captured sCO₂ and transport it from ADNOC’s Habshan facility to its Bab Far North Field Development CO₂ Storage Hub via a dedicated pipeline. By 2030, ADNOC aims to increase its carbon capture capacity to five million tons annually.

With the innovative application of pumps for sCO₂ applications, the use of Flowserve’s sealing solutions in this capacity marks a significant technological achievement in the field of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS), signifying the company’s growing leadership in the decarbonization market as demand for innovative CCS solutions grows.
