Technip has announced it has been awarded a contract by Air Products to provide technology, engineering and procurement services for a grassroots hydrogen plant in Baytown, Texas, US. The 3.5 million m3 per day plant will produce hydrogen and carbon monoxide (CO), which will be supplied to customers from Air Products’ established Gulf Coast Hydrogen and CO Pipeline Networks.
The plant will feature Technip’s proprietary high efficiency steam methane reforming (SMR) technology to produce high purity hydrogen, carbon monoxide and export steam. It will also use the latest nitrogen oxide reduction technology to reduce emissions.
Technip’s operating center in Claremont, California, USA, will manage the project, which is scheduled for completion in 2018.
Stan Knez, President, Technip Stone & Webster Process Technology, commented: "We are proud that our SMR technology is helping customers meet the world’s growing energy needs in a reliable, efficient and sustainable manner. We look forward to executing this new project under our global alliance with Air Products. This is the longest and most productive global hydrogen alliance supporting the oil and gas industry around the world.”
