In Oman, Oman Observer reported that the Ministry of Energy Minerals (MoEM) said it is extending support to Oman Shell’s continuing studies into the technical and commercial viability of its proposed blue hydrogen and ammonia project.
Salim bin Nasser al Aufi, Minister of Energy and Minerals, led a government team which met with Oman Shell’s Senior Vice President and Country Chair, Walid Hadi, to discuss the latest developments on the project.
The report stated that Shell is the developer of the proposed project which aims to supply blue hydrogen and ammonia to local and international markets enabled by capturing and storing the carbon dioxide (CO2) associated with the production process.
Shell has selected Duqm as the location of its blue hydrogen and ammonia manufacturing facilities where there are opportunities to supply local industries with low carbon hydrogen.
