JX Nippon signs up KBR for low-carbon studies

摘要

JX Nippon has contracted US player KBR to undertake carbon capture and storage (CCS) and blue hydrogen production studies for the Japanese operator's oil and gas fields in Southeast Asia. KBR last week was awarded a master service agreement and feasibility study to provide technical consultancy services with the aim of developing concepts and technology recommendations for carbon capture, reinjection and production of "blue" hydrogen made from fossil fuels without producing carbon dioxide emissions.
