DNV and PETROJET sign MoU to support green hydrogen projects in Egypt
In Norway, DNV, an independent energy expert and assurance provider, signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Petroject, an Engineering-Procurement-Construction (EPC) contractor, to strengthen their collaboration for the energy transition in Egypt through the development of green hydrogen and its derivatives- including ammonia. The MoU aims to scope areas in which DNV can support Petrojet with its technical expertise in design verification and project assurance, as Petroject is seeking a leading role as a green hydrogen EPC contractor. The agreement also encompasses renewable power generation and energy storage projects, technical studies for natural gas and hydrogen/natural gas blend infrastructure, along with other technical services for CO2 or low-carbon hydrogen projects. “Egypt has great potential for the cost-effective production of low-carbon hydrogen and its derivatives, and is at a geographic nexus,” said Hisham El-Grawany, DNV’s Vice President and Area Manager for North Africa. “Our energy transition research shows that the region is set to become a key global supplier in the emerging global hydrogen market, and is expected to be the main exporter of pure hydrogen to Europe.”
