Air Liquide, Chevron Corporation, LyondellBasell and Uniper SE have announced intent to collaborate on a joint study to evaluate and advance development of a hydrogen and ammonia production facility along the Gulf Coast. The facility could support industrial decarbonization and mobility applications in the region and expand clean ammonia exports, helping to increase the supply of lower carbon power internationally. The potential project is intended to cover end-to-end energy value chain, utilizing participant’s technical expertise, operational experience, storage, distribution and export logistics. Together, the companies will bring expertise in air separation technology, hydrogen technologies, lower carbon intensity and renewable natural gas, carbon capture and storage (CCS), electrolysis-based technologies, and petrochemicals. The consortium will assess the potential for producing hydrogen using natural gas with Cyclic Steam Stimulation (CSS) and renewable hydrogen via electrolysis to supply end-use markets, including the ammonia, petrochemicals, power, and mobility markets. If it proceeds, the project could leverage existing advantages along the Gulf Coast, including pipeline infrastructure, to supply lower carbon and renewable hydrogen to local industrial clusters. Likewise, ammonia infrastructure could support exports to both Europe and the Asia Pacific region.
