Project Management

Hidrogenii, the joint venture (JV) between Plug Power Inc. and Olin Corporation, announced the commissioning of its 15 metric tons per day (tpd) H₂ liquefaction plant in St. Gabriel, Louisiana.

Like most construction megaprojects, processing projects have scaled up in complexity while offsetting that complexity using tools such as computer-aided design (CAD), building information modeling (BIM) and project management software. The bad news for the processing industries is that complexity has been outpacing the implementation of productivity tools—however, this may be about to change.

Mitsubishi has agreed to participate in a demonstration project for the development of a H₂-based fluidized bed fine ore reduction process and electric smelting furnace as a strategic partner of Primetals Technologies, along with Rio Tinto and voestalpine.

Gulf Energy to provide AIQ with exclusive access to its proprietary datasets, and industry-leading documents. ENERGY^ai is already trained on petabytes of operational data from ADNOC, and this agreement will provide the solution with access to even greater quantities of relevant, high-quality industry information.

Gulf Energy Information is pleased to announce that nominations are now open for the 2025 Gulf Energy Information Excellence Awards, the premier international honors recognizing outstanding innovation, leadership, and achievement across the global energy sector.

In this episode, H₂Tech sat down with Michael Kolodner, Global Renewable Energy and U.S. Power Leader at Marsh Energy, to explore how businesses can manage risk in an evolving energy landscape. From H₂ infrastructure to carbon capture, Michael breaks down the unique risks facing the sector and how Marsh supports clients through policy shifts, emerging technologies, and complex supply chains. Whether you're a veteran of the power industry or a tech entrant navigating energy demands, this episode sheds light on the critical role of strategic risk management in enabling innovation and capital flow in the energy transition.

In this episode, we sit down with Von Williams at the World Electrolysis Congress in Cologne, Germany to discuss the latest developments in the world of electrolysis. Von shares his role in shaping the conference agenda, highlights from impactful panels, and the major challenges facing the hydrogen industry today, including electrolyzer performance, grid infrastructure, and policy frameworks. We also chat with Francois Paquet from the Renewable Hydrogen Coalition about Europe's leadership in renewable hydrogen, the importance of demand creation, and the role of legally binding targets in accelerating the industry.

There is an increasing need for industry to transition toward more sustainable and low-carbon solutions, and green H₂ is emerging as an alternative thermal source in this scenario. When used as a fuel in steam crackers, H₂ has the potential to eliminate CO₂ emissions.

Fired heaters, reformers and olefin furnaces (referred to collectively as heaters) are critical assets in the hydrocarbon and petrochemical processing industries (HPI). Refractory linings, structures and associated materials play a vital role in protecting exterior steel casing from high temperatures, flames and corrosive combustion gases, reducing thermal energy losses and fuel consumption. 

Pipelines are a highly cost-effective method of transportation, and existing pipeline infrastructures are being assessed for their suitability to transport H₂ around the globe, blended within natural gas transport or as pure H₂.

To establish a sustainable global green hydrogen (H₂) market, offtake agreements—which determine the sale, purchase and supply of green H₂ and its derivatives—are paramount.
