Thyssenkrupp Uhde announces Floating Ammonia plant Collaboration

Thyssenkrupp Uhde will support the project OFFSET consortium to develop an industrial scale floating green hydrogen and ammonia plant.

In March 2023, SwitcH2 B.V. announced it had received Approval in Principle from DNV on its design principles for an FPSO which will produce ammonia offshore solely from renewable sources of energy. As part of the Approval in Principle process, BWO developed the topside arrangement, hull, and mooring system design for the FPSO with the engagement of thyssenkrupp Uhde via a Technical Concept Study for the ammonia plant based on thyssenkrupp’s uhde® ammonia synthesis technologies.

The project consortium has received a grant of Euro 3 million in April 2023 from the Dutch government in support of project OFFSET. The objective is to develop a floating hydrogen and/or ammonia production and storage facility which will be connected to an adjacent wind farm by 2027.
