Linde Selected by NEXTCHEM to Supply New Carbon Capture Technology to ADNOC’S Hail and Ghasha Project
11.04.2024 By Tank Terminals - NEWS

November 04, 2024 [Storage Terminals Magazine]- Linde Engineering has finalised an agreement with NEXTCHEM to supply carbon capture technology for the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company’s (ADNOC) Hail and Ghasha project. This initiative, situated in the United Arab Emirates, ranks among the largest offshore sour gas developments globally and is designed to operate with net zero emissions.

 

As part of the agreement, Linde Engineering will implement its advanced adsorption-based carbon capture solution, HISORP® CC, which effectively captures and purifies carbon dioxide (CO2) for sequestration (CCS). This technology aims to significantly diminish greenhouse gas emissions during the natural gas and oil production processes. The project, in alignment with ADNOC’s strategy to reduce carbon emissions, targets the capture of 1.5 million tonnes per year of CO2 for underground storage.

Linde is set to provide its carbon capture technology along with the core units, collaborating closely with NEXTCHEM, a division of the MAIRE Group, which is a prominent technology and engineering solutions provider based in Italy. John van der Velden, senior vice president of global sales & technology at Linde Engineering, expressed pride in being selected as the technology provider for this significant international project, emphasising its connection to the commitment to support decarbonisation in energy production and industry. He noted that the HISORP® CC technology, deployed in this large-scale project, is instrumental in helping ADNOC achieve its net zero emissions goal.

Unlike traditional chemical-based amine systems, Linde’s HISORP® CC operates as an electrically-driven solution, fully powered by renewable energy. It integrates pressure swing adsorption with cryogenic separation and compression to attain CO2 capture rates exceeding 99 percent. This innovative process eliminates the need for steam during regeneration, thus preventing an increase in the carbon footprint.

Additionally, Linde plans to utilise its HISORP® carbon capture technology in its newly announced world-scale integrated clean hydrogen and atmospheric gases facility, which will supply clean hydrogen to Dow’s Fort Saskatchewan Path2Zero Project in Alberta, Canada.
