Air Products has signed a long-term supply contract with Monsanto Company to build a new world-scale hydrogen production plant to be located at Monsanto’s Luling, Louisiana Roundup facility. Air Products’ East Gulf Coast hydrogen pipeline system currently reaches more than 175 continuous miles from Baton Rouge to Chalmette, Louisiana.
These 50,000 dead weight tonne vessels will be built with MAN ME-LGI flex fuel engines running on methanol, fuel oil, marine diesel oil, or gas oil. Methanol is a sulfur-free fuel that provides many environmental and clean burning benefits. Earlier post.). —Jone Hognestad, President, Waterfront Shipping.
Air Products plans to construct a new 180-mile long pipeline connecting its existing Louisiana and Texas hydrogen pipeline systems, creating the world’s largest hydrogen plant and pipeline supply network. Hydrogen is widely used in petroleum refining processes to remove impurities found in crude oil such as sulfur, olefins and aromatics.
Air Products had operated two hydrogen pipeline systems in Texas and Louisiana before joining them with a new 180-mile segment. billion cubic feet of hydrogen per day to Louisiana and Texas customers. The company announced the pipeline project in 2010 and placed it onstream in August 2012 to begin supply of more than 1.2
plans to undertake a capacity expansion of its Geismar, Louisiana biorefinery by 250 million gallons annually to 340 million gallons per year. The state of Louisiana and Ascension Parish have been great partners who encouraged us every step along the way as we developed our expansion plan. Renewable Energy Group, Inc.
Honeywell’s UOP—a major international supplier and licensor of technology for petroleum refining, gas processing, petrochemical production and major manufacturing industries—has also been an early leader in developing technologies for the production of renewable drop-in hydrocarbon fuels.

Under the terms of the agreement, Encana will make fueling services available where Heckmann Water Resources (HWR) operates its fleet of water transportation vehicles. Additionally, because of cleaner combustion, the average operating life of NGVs is considerably longer.
Shell and its affiliates will build two additional small-scale natural gas liquefaction units to provide liquefied natural gas (LNG) fuel for marine and heavy-duty on-road customers in North America. Shell is also working to use natural gas as a fuel in its own operations. Earlier post.) Gulf Coast. Lawrence Seaway.
The Ford bi-fuel trucks were recently purchased as part of a pilot program to be rolled out throughout its US operations. The new CNG truck fleet will be assigned to 15 US locations across seven states including Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado, California, Louisiana, Utah and Pennsylvania.
The new pipeline extension, which is in the project execution phase, will connect Air Products’ Texas hydrogen system to the Louisiana hydrogen system. It will supply the Louisiana and Texas refinery and petrochemical industries with over one billion cubic feet of hydrogen per day.

Under the test program, the first of its kind in the US, Renergie will use variable blending pumps, not splash blending, to precisely dispense hydrous ethanol blends of E10, E20, E30, and E85 to test blend optimization with respect to fuel economy, engine emissions, and vehicle drivability. Earlier post.).
The US Department of Energy (DOE) offered a conditional commitment to guarantee loans of up to $2 billion to Lake Charles Methanol, LLC to construct the world’s first methanol production facility to employ carbon capture technology in Lake Charles, Louisiana. The captured carbon would be utilized for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in Texas.
The other goal, of course, is the system’s ultimate purpose: to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions by channeling funds into cleaner technologies. Each SABMF has a production capacity of five million gallons per year of fuel-grade ethanol. On-site blending pumps, in lieu of splash blending, are used for this test.
