BW Offshore and McDermott International have unveiled a floating blue ammonia FPSO concept that converts surplus natural gas into lower-carbon fuel. The FPSO can process 3 million cubic meters of gas per day and produce over 1 million tonnes of ammonia annually, incorporating technology to capture and compress 99% of CO₂ emissions.
Positioned near offshore gas sources, this concept avoids constraints of onshore facilities. The ammonia production aligns with low-carbon fuel demand, as forecasted by the International Energy Agency, and is part of BW Offshore's energy transition portfolio. Capital-efficient leasing models may be available for operators.
