ABP launches ammonia terminal tender for Immingham

Immingham Green Energy Terminal will be a multi-user bulk liquid green energy terminal to support the import of green ammonia from NEOM in Saudi Arabia to be converted to green hydrogen.

A mega green hydrogen production facility is being developed at Oxagon in Saudi Arabia’s region of NEOM at a total investment value of US$8.4 billion. It will integrate up to 4GW of solar and wind energy, producing up to 600 tonnes per day of carbon-free hydrogen by the end of 2026, in the form of green ammonia.

As well as importing ammonia, ABP expects the new terminal to help with decarbonising the UK’s transport sector and the import of carbon dioxide for carbon capture storage.

ABP is responsible for developing and operating the marine facilities to meet the infrastructure needs and is now looking to appoint a lead contractor or consortium to undertake a design and build contract.

The contract will be worth £140 million and has a duration of 30 months. The time limit for requests to participate is set for 12 January 2024.
