ExxonMobil and Trammo Forge Deal for Low-Carbon Hydrogen Project in Texas
Key Ideas
  • ExxonMobil and Trammo have agreed to advance discussions on a long-term ammonia purchase agreement from ExxonMobil's low-carbon hydrogen project in Texas.
  • The project aims to capture 98 percent of carbon dioxide emissions, produce low-carbon ammonia for various industrial uses, and be the world's largest low-carbon hydrogen plant.
  • Multiple international companies, including ADNOC, Mitsubishi, JERA, and Air Liquide, are involved in investments and offtake commitments for the project.
  • The project is expected to create jobs, enhance U.S. energy exports, and contribute to the decarbonization goals of the companies involved by providing low-carbon solutions.
ExxonMobil and Trammo have signed a heads of agreement to explore a potential deal where Trammo would purchase 300,000 to 500,000 metric tons of ammonia annually from ExxonMobil's low-carbon hydrogen project in Baytown, Texas. The ammonia produced will have 98 percent of carbon dioxide emissions captured for sequestration. This project, expected to be the world's largest low-carbon hydrogen production plant, targets a capacity of one billion cubic feet of hydrogen per day and over one million metric tons of ammonia per year. The final investment decision is anticipated this year, with operations scheduled to begin in 2029. The partnership has garnered interest from various international companies like ADNOC, Mitsubishi, JERA, and Air Liquide, each seeking to invest or make purchase commitments for ammonia supply. The involvement of these companies, along with the support from the U.S. government, regulatory bodies, and market conditions, underscores the significance of the project in advancing low-carbon solutions for industrial applications. The collaboration also aims to create jobs, boost energy exports, and align with global decarbonization efforts. Overall, the project signifies a major step towards sustainable energy practices and international cooperation in the transition towards cleaner energy sources.
