Linde Awarded H2 Contract - 4/29/2009
Murray Hill, NJ - Linde North America and Shell Oil Company have executed a long-term contract for Linde to supply hydrogen for Shell’s Deer Park, TX, complex. The hydrogen will be used primarily for the production of clean-burning transportation fuels at Deer Park Refining Company, a 50:50 joint venture of Shell and PMI Norteamerica S.A. de C.V., a wholly owned subsidiary of Petroleos Mexicanos (Pemex). Linde North America is a member of The Linde Group, a world-leading gases and engineering company.
Linde will invest in excess of $50 million to supply hydrogen through a pipeline network connected to its facilities in the Houston Ship Channel. The supply will commence in mid-2010.
Kent Masters, member of The Linde Group executive board, says, “Linde has been associated with Shell on multiple international initiatives in the areas of industrial gases and plant supply and the provision of engineering services during the last five years. We are very excited to expand this relationship by the establishment of this additional long-term hydrogen tonnage supply arrangement in the strategic Houston Ship Channel area.”
Execution of the Deer Park supply contract builds upon Linde’s hydrogen supply relationship established earlier with Shell Chemicals in connection with hydrogen and steam supply for its specialty refinery in Mobile, AL, which commenced in 2007.
