据世界天然气8月18日消息称，日本最大的勘探和生产公司INPEX公司与阿拉伯联合酋长国阿布扎比国家石油公司(ADNOC)签署了一项销售和采购协议，涉及将清洁氨应用于连接阿联酋和日本的示范供应链。
从ADNOC购买的清洁氨将由ADNOC在现有合成氨厂使用天然气生产。
据了解，清洁氨将减少碳足迹，因为生产氨所排放的大部分二氧化碳将被隔离在INPEX参与的阿布扎比陆上油田。
清洁的氨将通过 ISO 罐式集装箱从阿布扎比运输到日本，并计划用于能源领域，包括作为发电燃料的示范。
通过这项工作，INPEX计划与ADNOC密切合作，实施从清洁氨生产到最终用途的示范供应链。
氨作为氢的储存和运输方式具有优势，燃烧时不排放二氧化碳。因此，它有望被用作发电和海上运输的燃料，以符合全球实现净零碳社会的运动。

INPEX, ADNOC to work align="justify"> INPEX Corporation, Japan’s largest exploration and production company, has signed a sales and purchase agreement with the United Arab Emirates-based oil company Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) concerning the application of clean ammonia for a demonstration supply chain linking the UAE and Japan.
The clean ammonia purchased from ADNOC will be produced by ADNOC using natural gas at an existing ammonia plant.
As informed, the clean ammonia will have a reduced carbon footprint wherein most of the CO2 emitted from the production of the ammonia will be sequestered at Abu Dhabi align="justify"> The clean ammonia will be transported from Abu Dhabi to Japan in an ISO tank container and is scheduled to be utilized in energy fields including a demonstration as a power generation fuel.
Through this exercise, INPEX plans to work closely with ADNOC to implement a demonstration supply chain extending from the production of clean ammonia to its end-use.
Ammonia is advantageous as a mode of storage and transportation of hydrogen and emits no CO2 when combusted. It is therefore expected to be utilized as fuel for power generation and marine transportation in line with global movements toward the realization of a net-zero carbon society.
