Houston/USA – Mc Dermott and BW Offshore have entered into a collaboration to advance the technical and commercial viability of offshore blue ammonia production. This strategic partnership aims to enable a viable pathway for offshore blue ammonia production, contributing to the global transition to low-carbon energy sources, and reinforcing both companies' commitment to sustainable energy practices.

The collaboration will leverage the combined expertise of Mc Dermott and BW Offshore to advance the development of low carbon ammonia production aboard a floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) facility. FPSOs have the potential to unlock multiple benefits for ammonia production, including advantages in environmental, health and safety, schedule certainty, and competitive levelized costs of ammonia.

BW Offshore will contribute its leading expertise in FPSO solutions and apply an innovative approach to offshore production facilities. Its commitment to advancing the energy transition through sustainable technologies makes it an ideal partner for this project.
