Woodside finds hydrogen partner in Singapore
PERTH (miningweekly.com) – Oil and gas major Woodside Energy has inked a non-binding heads of agreement (HoA) with Singapore’s Keppel Data Centres Holding to evaluate the potential supply of liquid hydrogen to Singapore from Woodside’s portfolio of planned production facilities, including its proposed H2Perth facility in Perth.
The HoA provides a pathway for the parties to jointly develop further commercial principles for key hydrogen supply chain agreements over a potential 1 000 t/d of liquid hydrogen by Keppel Data Centres as early as 2030, when the parties anticipate the associated production technologies and shipping systems will reach maturity.
It is envisaged that a hydrogen supply chain will benefit Keppel Data Centres’ data centre facilities, including its planned Datapark+, which is envisioned to be an energy-efficient data centre park development in Singapore.
Using hydrogen instead of more carbon-intensive energy sources has the potential to reduce emissions generated by data centres.
Woodside executive VP for New Energy Shaun Gregory pointed to Woodside’s proven track record as an energy supplier to the region and its liquid hydrogen experience being developed through its work on the proposed H2OK project for the US domestic market, as well as H2Perth.
“Woodside has more than 30 years’ experience cooling, storing and transporting large volumes of gas. Liquefying hydrogen provides the opportunity to export energy that can contribute to the decarbonisation goals of customers and provide an economic and trade opportunity that supports the Singapore-Australia Green Economy Agreement,” he said.
