KBR to Conduct Conceptual Study for Floating Blue Ammonia Production

KBR has been awarded a conceptual study contract for floating blue ammonia production from Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI), one of the world's largest shipbuilders in South Korea.

The award is part of SHI’s diversification in the ocean energy business, with a focus on maritime technology. The study will utilize KBR’s innovative blue ammonia technology, which is suitable for offshore production, and leverage SHI’s expertise in the design of mega-floating vessels.

“We are proud to collaborate with SHI for this strategic project and provide our low-carbon blue ammonia process technology solution to develop this first-of-its-kind floating ammonia production facility,” said Jay Ibrahim, KBR President, Sustainable Technology Solutions. “This concept will deliver a sustainable platform to our clients globally for achieving their energy transition objectives with greater flexibility.”

KBR is a world leader in ammonia technology and has been at the forefront of innovation in the ammonia market for decades. Since 1943, KBR has licensed, engineered, or constructed over 260 grassroots ammonia plants worldwide.
