Technip Energies invests in Verso Energy’s DEZiR eSAF project in Rouen
Technip Energies has signed an agreement with Verso Energy to acquire a minority equity stake in the DEZiR project, a synthetic aviation fuel (eSAF) plant located in Rouen, France.
Technip Energies will contribute to the DEZiR project through the implementation of its carbon capture solution, Canopy by T.ENTM powered by Shell CANSOLV, to capture biogenic CO2 from nearby industries and enable the utilization of this CO2 for eSAF production. In addition, Rely – Technip Energies’ joint venture with John Cockerill dedicated to Power-to-X solutions – is carrying out the project’s Front-End Engineering Design (FEED), the firm said.
In November 2025, Verso Energy and Rely signed the first FEED contract for the Rouen eSAF plant. Once operational by around 2030, the facility is expected to produce 80,000 tons per year of decarbonized aviation fuel.
