This project, delivered on behalf of United Living Infrastructure Services (ULIS), is designed to enhance the resilience and sustainability of the UK’s gas network. The Wormington Compressor Station is a critical node in the National Transmission System (NTS) operated by National Gas, connecting gas import terminals in South Wales with the NTS and South West England. As part of the Medium Plant Combustion Directive (MCPD), the project will significantly reduce emissions and improve efficiency by installing a new, state-of-the-art 15MW gas turbine-driven compressor train on greenfield land. The existing Rolls Royce Avon-driven compressor will be retained for reserve use during peak demand and maintenance. Usman Darr, Managing Director of Engineering at Kent UK, commented: > “We are proud to continue our front-end and asset health work for National Gas on other compressor stations and to be working with United Living on this crucial project that supports the UK's sustainability and energy security objectives. Our expertise in engineering and energy transition solutions will ensure that Wormington Compressor Station is future-proofed with efficient, lower-emission infrastructure.” As the Engineering design and project execution partner Kent will bring its extensive knowledge and capabilities in energy infrastructure, ensuring a seamless, innovative, and sustainable execution of the project. By leveraging cutting-edge engineering solutions, Kent will support the design and construction phases to deliver a future-proofed facility that aligns with the UK’s evolving energy landscape. The Wormington project further strengthens Kent’s long-standing relationship with National Gas and expands on its extensive portfolio of projects that enhance the UK’s energy security while reducing environmental impact.
