CCS-based ammonia exports from Australia & Canada to South Korea
Two mega-projects will establish CCS ammonia supply chains to South Korea for use as a power generation fuel. In Western Australia, Pilot Energy and new project partners Samsung C&T will develop the Mid West Clean Energy Project, while Hydrogen Canada Corp has announced a Korean offtaker for its production project near Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta.

OCI Global: renewable ammonia in Texas
OCI will offtake electrolytic hydrogen feedstock from New Fortress Energy’s ZeroParks facility from 2025, allowing for the production of 80,000 tonnes per year of renewable ammonia at its Beaumont plant in Texas. This “over-the-fence” feedstock approach will also be employed in the development of a new multi-million tonne per year, greenfield ammonia plant in Beaumont, with Linde to own & operate an adjacent, CCS-based hydrogen production plant.

Demonstrating CCS-based ammonia technologies in Japan
Our June episode of Ammonia Project Features focused on a new project in Niigata prefecture, which will demonstrate low-carbon, fossil-based ammonia production with a capacity of 500 tonnes per year. As part of the project, Japanese government organization JOGMEC will work with INPEX to develop enhanced gas recovery & CO2 sequestration monitoring technologies. Tsubame BHB will deploy its low-temperature, low-pressure ammonia synthesis technology based on an electride-supported catalyst developed at the Tokyo Institute of Technology.

Marubeni & Pembina: low-carbon ammonia production in Alberta, Canada
Marubeni & Pembina Pipeline Corporation will jointly develop a low-carbon ammonia supply chain from Western Canada to Japan. CCS-based hydrogen production & ammonia plants will be built adjacent to Pembina’s existing complex near Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta, with ammonia to be shipped by rail to Canada’s west coast for export.

Ammonia supply chain between the Middle East & Japan takes shape
Mitsui & Co., INPEX and Japanese government agency JOGMEC will partner with ADNOC to verify the emissions intensity of ammonia produced at a new project in al-Ruwais, UAE. The final methodology is likely to reflect the definition of clean ammonia currently being developed in Japan. Shipments of CCU-based ammonia have arrived in Japan & India in recent weeks from SABIC in Saudi Arabia, further highlighting the potential of Middle East supply chains.
