Air Products will build, own and operate a new hydrogen facility in Lake Charles, Louisiana, with a capacity in excess of 100 million standard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD), to serve ConocoPhillips’ growing requirements. Air Products also signed a long-term hydrogen supply agreement with ConocoPhillips. In addition, Air Products will link the new facility to its existing hydrogen pipeline network, which will be extended approximately 40 miles to Lake Charles. The new hydrogen facility, a natural gas-based hydrogen steam methane reformer, is to be connected to the existing Air Products hydrogen pipeline system originating in the Houston Ship Channel. The current Air Products pipeline system supplies over 40 customers and is to be extended further east to Lake Charles. “This pipeline extension allows us to increase our reliability of supply to ConocoPhillips, as well as to our many other refining and chemical customers located along the system,” Byrne said. The hydrogen facility will be the 19th to be built through the Air Products and Technip-Coflexip Group alliance. Air Products and Technip-Coflexip recently announced the signing of a new 10-year agreement extending
this successful alliance through 2011.
