Mideast–Europe H2 pipeline seen as feasible

Gulf exporters could potentially supply Europe by pipeline at delivered cost of €2.7/kg, consultants Rina and Afry say in new analysis

The Mideast Gulf could feasibly export significant volumes of low-carbon hydrogen to Europe via a pipeline across the Mediterranean at a delivered cost of about €2.7/kg ($2.95/kg) from the 2030s, according to preliminary analysis by two consultancies. A pipeline system connecting Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Egypt, and traversing the Mediterranean, could transport 100TWh, or c.2.5mn t/yr, of hydrogen to Europe, with the potential to scale up with the addition of further lines, according to Italian inspection, certification and engineering consultancy Rina and Swedish-Finnish engineering, design, and advisory firm Afry. The cost of transporting hydrogen by pipeline is initially seen as approximate
