Fertiglobe, in collaboration with TA’ZIZ, Mitsui & Co., Ltd., and GS Energy Corporation, has awarded a contract to Tecnimont S.p.A. to commence the construction of a 1 million ton per annum (mtpa) low-carbon ammonia facility in Al Ruwais Industrial City, Abu Dhabi. This project aims to strengthen Abu Dhabi's position in low-carbon fuels and meet the rising demand for low-carbon ammonia as a carrier fuel for clean hydrogen. The construction is set to begin in Q3 2024, with operations starting in 2027. A significant portion of the construction value is expected to benefit the UAE’s economy through ADNOC’s In-Country Value program. The facility is projected to produce ammonia with 50% lower carbon intensity initially, with further reductions planned through carbon capture and sequestration. In May 2024, ADNOC delivered the first certified bulk commercial shipment of low-carbon ammonia, produced by Fertiglobe, to Mitsui & Co., Ltd. for clean power generation in Japan.
