CF Industries’ potential implementation of CCS at the Waggaman Ammonia Facility to produce blue ammonia. The facility has a nameplate capacity of 880,000 tons of grey ammonia annually. CF Industries acquired the facility from Incitec Pivot Limited in December 2023.
A potential petcoke-to-blue ammonia project in Terre Haute, Vigo County, Indiana. The Wabash Valley Resources facility is expected to produce 500,000 metric tons of anhydrous ammonia annually and it will repower and repurpose an existing gasification plant. It is a commercial-scale waste-to-ammonia production facility that uses CCS technology, with a commercial-scale geological storage complex for storage… Continue reading Wabash | Indiana Blue Ammonia Project
North Shore Energy and Starwood Energy Group are jointly exploring the development of a blue ammonia complex with on-site carbon capture and sequestration capabilities at existing depleted hydrocarbon reservoirs and processing facilities near Evanston, Wyoming.
A 1.1 million ton per annum blue ammonia project in Beaumont, Texas, based on KBR technology. The project achieved FID in Q1 2022, and it targets production for Q1 2025. The project has been awarded to Maire Tecnimont on an Engineering & Procurement basis. Capital expenditure is expected to be within OCI’s guidance of up… Continue reading OCI | Blue Ammonia Beaumont
Nutrien suspended the project in August 2023, due to higher expected capital costs of between 10 – 15% along with uncertain end-market demand. The project was initially supposed to reach a final investment decision in 2023, with construction beginning in 2024 and full production expected in 2027. The facility had a $2 billion capex and… Continue reading Nutrien | Geismar Clean Ammonia Facility
The CAD $2.5bn facility will be able to produce around 200 million tonnes per year of blue methanol and blue hydrogen that will be converted to ammonia and shipped internationally. Construction is expected to start in spring 2023 and be completed in fall 2026.
LSB Industries and Lapis Energy are developing a project to capture and permanently sequester CO2 at LSB’s El Dorado, Arkansas facility. The CO2 is produced as a by-product of LSB’s ammonia production at the facility. The CO2 will be injected into deep geological formations largely located under LSB’s existing 1,400-acre plant site. Lapis, backed by… Continue reading LSB | Lapis Energy | El Dorado Blue Ammonia CCS Project
KeyState Natural Gas Synthesis’ project is expected to produce hydrogen, automotive-grade urea, and ammonia while capturing and permanently storing CO2 emissions associated with hydrogen production underground. In August 2022, Black & Veatch announced it had started pre-FEED work for the project. In November 2022, Stamicarbon signed an agreement for a feasibility study with KeyState to… Continue reading KeyState | Pennsylvania Blue Hydrogen Project
JERA and ConocoPhillips were developing a manufacturing base in the US Gulf Coast that would have produced hydrogen on a large scale and converted it into ammonia. Plans for the plant were canceled in September 2024 following a pre-FEED study. “Our view is that the nascent lower-carbon hydrogen/ammonia market has not developed at the pace… Continue reading JERA | ConocoPhillips | Gulf Coast Ammonia Plant
Inter Pipeline is partnering with Petronas Canada and ITOCHU Japan on proposed blue ammonia and blue methanol facilities. A final investment decision is expected in 2024. If sanctioned, construction would commence in late 2024 with a 2027 in-service date. The project was announced on May 11, 2022.
