Advancements in Offshore Hydrocarbons, Green Hydrogen Technology, and Sustainable Fuels in Chile
Key Ideas
  • Offshore hydrocarbons project Sea Lion in the Falkland Islands is progressing with an expected final investment decision in mid-2025, aiming for first oil in 4Q27.
  • Chile awarded a green hydrogen technology center project in the Magallanes region to support the development of a local hydrogen industry, involving various public and private sector stakeholders.
  • Enap and Lipigas in Chile signed an agreement for the joint development of renewable diesel and liquified gas, focusing on producing low-carbon fuels using organic residues at Enap's refineries.
  • Chile's energy transition efforts include working towards carbon neutrality by 2050, with projects like the green hydrogen technology center and production of renewable fuels playing key roles.
Work is progressing on the Falkland Islands offshore hydrocarbons project Sea Lion, with a floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel MOU signed and front-end engineering design work initiated. The project, led by Rockhopper Exploration and Navitas, aims for first oil in 4Q27. In Chile, a green hydrogen technology center project was awarded in the Magallanes region to support the local hydrogen industry development. Partners include Fundación Chile, VTT, local universities, and energy agencies. Additionally, Enap and Lipigas in Chile are collaborating on producing renewable diesel and liquified gas from organic residues, aligning with Chile's energy transition goals. These initiatives contribute to Chile's aim for carbon neutrality by 2050, emphasizing the importance of sustainable fuels and renewable technology in the country's energy landscape.
