Chart Industries, GasLong partner on hydrogen deployment
25 March 2024
Goal is large-scale liquefaction solutions for the global distribution of LH2
Chart Industries is collaborating with LNG shipping services company GasLog LNG Services to study the development of a commercial-scale liquid hydrogen supply chain.
The company said the goal is leveraging GasLog’s latest developments of a liquid hydrogen vessel and Chart’s extensive experience in cryogenics and large-scale liquefaction solutions for the global distribution of LH2.
This collaboration aims to support GasLog’s participation in recently announced projects to develop a commercial-scale LH2 supply chain from export markets in the Middle East to European and Asian destinations for onward distribution by liquid transportation and/or gas via pipelines to various end users.
Chart will leverage its over 158 years of hydrogen experience for this collaboration through hydrogen compression, liquefaction and refrigeration technologies, and cryogenic loading/unloading operations, amongst other products.
“This collaboration with Chart Industries is our commitment to explore and support the use of hydrogen, via liquid form, to benefit industries and users globally,” said CEO of GasLog, Paolo Enoizi. “I have confidence that our combined experience from the cryogenic industries will ensure the safety and efficiency of novel liquid hydrogen supply chains across the world.”
“We are excited to collaborate with GasLog for effective large scale LH2 supply chain deployment,” stated Jill Evanko, CEO and President of Chart Industries. “We see a significant momentum shift from export developers discussing ammonia supply chains twelve months ago to LH2 supply chains today.”
