Name and Location
Steam methane reformer (SMR) project, Texas, US.

Client
The plant will be built by the global hydrogen alliance between Air Products and Technip.

Project Description
The project involves the development of a world-scale SMR in Baytown, Texas, on a build, own and operate basis.

The SMR will produce hydrogen and carbon monoxide (CO) to supply in Air Products’ Gulf Coast hydrogen and CO pipeline networks.

The plant and cold box will produce about 125-million standard cubic feet of hydrogen a day and a world-scale supply of CO. The plant will feature the latest technology to maximise energy efficiency and reduce emissions, and will include optimal heat integration, which, in turn, will lower feedstock consumption.

Value
The project will cost between $350-million and $400-million to build.

Duration
The plant is expected to come on stream in 2018.
