--- title: Kent Awarded FEED contract for Prinos Carbon Storage Project by EnEarth - A Key EU Decarbonisation Initiative in Greece date: 2026-03-13T09:03:00+00:00 author: Alex Chisholm canonical_url: "https://kentplc.com/news-insights/kent-awarded-feed-contract-for-prinos" section: Blog --- 13 Mar 2026 Press Releases & Featured Stories # Kent Awarded FEED contract for Prinos Carbon Storage Project by EnEarth - A Key EU Decarbonisation Initiative in Greece ![Generic Banner 3]() Kent, a global leader in engineering and project delivery services, has been selected, by EnEarth, to perform the Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) for the Prinos CO₂ Storage Project in Northern Greece. The Prinos CO₂ Project aims to safely receive and permanently store CO₂ emissions, supporting Greece’s decarbonisation goals and contributing to the EU’s climate targets. The FEED phase will define the technical scope and execution strategy for the Prinos CO2 project, ensuring the highest standards of safety, efficiency, and sustainability. Kent will develop the front-end engineering design for the new CO₂ handling and storage facility, which will receive, store, transport, and inject CO₂ into the Prinos aquifer underlying the existing reservoir. The Prinos CO2 Storage Project is the first of its kind that has been awarded an environmental permit and a storage permit in the Mediterranean, and one of the very few in Europe. It has been included in the Union list of Projects of Common Interest (PCIs), and secured funding from the EU’s Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) and the Greek Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF). The Prinos facility is being designed to receive and process up to 2.8 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) of liquid CO₂ by 2029. CO₂ will be shipped from remote emitters via marine carriers to a new marine terminal at the onshore Sigma plant near Kavala, where it will be temporarily stored before being conditioned, pumped and transported through a new subsea pipeline to a standalone CO₂ Injection and Water Production (COIWP) platform within the existing Prinos complex. Paul Wetton, Vice President UK Engineering Services at Kent, said: > “Prinos represents one of Europe’s most strategically important carbon storage developments, and this FEED award marks a meaningful step toward enabling large-scale industrial decarbonisation in Greece and across the EU. Kent brings deep experience in complex low-carbon projects globally, and we are committed to supporting EnEarth in designing Greece’s first dedicated CO₂ storage site. EnEarth’s leadership in advancing thies project creates a strong basis for collaboration, and we look forward to working together to help bring Prinos into its next phase.” Ioannis Politis, Group Head of Contracts & Procurement at Energean, said: > "This award demonstrates our commitment to advancing carbon storage as a cornerstone of the transition to a more sustainable planet. By partnering with Kent, a recognized leader in major engineering projects, we are confident in delivering a project that sets new benchmarks for innovation and environmental responsibility. We look forward to working closely with Kent to accelerate the transition to a low-carbon future."
