MoU signed for Sarawak H2biscus green hydrogen/ammonia project

Samsung Engineering signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to develop a green hydrogen and ammonia project with Lotte Chemical, POSCO and SEDC Energy Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of Sarawak Economic Development Corporation (SEDC).

The Sarawak H2biscus Green Hydrogen/Ammonia Project (H2biscus) will be located in Bintulu. The project aims to convert hydropower and natural gas to green hydrogen/methanol and blue hydrogen and for the conversion of hydrogen to ammonia, with the focus of supplying hydrogen and ammonia to Korea and Sarawak.

Based on the results of the pre-feasibility study conducted in 2021, the project is expected to produce 7,000 tonnes a year of green hydrogen for Sarawak’s local use, 600,000 tonnes a year of blue ammonia, 630,000 tonnes a year of green ammonia and 460,000 tonnes a year of green methanol.

Samsung Engineering, Lotte Chemical, POSCO and SEDC Energy will be taking an active role in developing the entire cycle of the project including direct investment, construction, transportation and utilization.

The feasibility study is planned to be verified by this month through an in-depth technology, legal, financial, tax, and market analysis. After the Feasibility Study, Pre-FEED and FEED are completed, the EPC work will be implemented for the H2biscus Project.

Samsung Engineering is also currently executing the Sarawak Petchem methanol plant project in Bintulu, which is expected to produce 5,000 tonnes a day of methanol.
