Worley Ltd. (North Sydney, Australia) will provide reimbursable Engineering, Procurement and Construction services (EPC) to ExxonMobil Corp. (Irving, Tex.) for the Enabling Works, Infrastructure and Interconnects scope of ExxonMobil’s planned low-carbon hydrogen and ammonia facility. The facility is adjacent to ExxonMobil’s chemicals and refining complex in Baytown, Texas. The contract is subject to final investment decision and supportive government policy and necessary regulatory permits.
ExxonMobil’s planned facility is expected to be the world’s largest of its kind upon startup, capable of producing up to 28.3 million cubic meters (up to 1 billion cubic feet) daily of low-carbon hydrogen, which has approximately 98% of carbon dioxide (CO2) removed, and nearly 1 million metric tons of low-carbon ammonia per year. Worley categorizes these services as sustainable in accordance with Worley’s definition of sustainability-related work.
“We are delighted to continue our strategic, global relationship with ExxonMobil in its execution of upcoming projects, particularly in delivering this EPC project on the US Gulf Coast, which contributes significantly to strengthening Worley’s backlog,” said Chris Ashton, Chief Executive Officer of Worley
