UK supermajor BP is progressing with plans to produce renewable fuels and green hydrogen at a former oil refinery site in Kwinana, Western Australia. Justin Nash, senior manager City & Corporate Integrated Solutions at BP, told delegates at an Energy Club WA event in Perth that the company is months away from the front-end engineering and design phase of the project. BP last September first flagged plans to repurpose the 65-year-old oil refinery to help decarbonise Western Australia's largest industrial cluster. The site, which is currently a fuel import terminal, will be used to convert waste-based feedstock into sustainable aviation fuel and hydrogenated vegetable oil, otherwise known as renewable diesel.
