Lone Cypress completes Front-End Engineering Design Study for its California blue hydrogen project

August 17, 2023 |

In Oklahoma, Lone Cypress Energy Services announced the completion of the Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) study for its Lone Cypress Hydrogen Project located at the Elk Hills Field in Kern County, California.

The study encompassed a 65 metric tons per day steam methane reformation plant with an integrated post combustion carbon capture system, hydrogen liquefaction, storage, dispensing, and all associated balance of plant infrastructure.

The study was conducted by Lone Cypress as the project developer and project management office with the support of its strategic technical partners and served to further validate the technical and commercial feasibility of the project. “The completion of the FEED study is a critical step in substantiating our assumptions around project costs and has given us the confidence to move forward with project development. Based on this analysis, we feel very confident this facility will generate the most cost-competitive low-carbon liquid hydrogen in the Western United States,” said Greg Brooks, Lone Cypress’ President and Chief Executive Officer.

Lone Cypress anticipates reaching a final investment decision before the end of the year, with an expected start-up in the last quarter of 2025.
