據(jù)MRCHUB網(wǎng)站5月31日莫斯科報道，根據(jù)煉油&石油化工網(wǎng)信息顯示，麥克德莫特的存儲業(yè)務(wù)部門CB&I和韓國天然氣公社(KOGAS)簽署了一份諒解備忘錄(MOU)，以探索大規(guī)模液氫存儲的開發(fā)，以支持韓國的氫經(jīng)濟(jì)規(guī)劃。

麥克德莫特在一份聲明中寫道，去年，韓國宣布了到2050年實(shí)現(xiàn)碳中和的計(jì)劃，用可再生能源取代燃煤發(fā)電，用氫動力和電池驅(qū)動的電動汽車取代內(nèi)燃機(jī)汽車。

該聲明指出，KOGAS已發(fā)展成為世界上最大的液化天然氣進(jìn)口公司，在韓國運(yùn)營著四個液化天然氣再氣化終端和4945千米的天然氣管道。

KOGAS執(zhí)行副總裁Seung Lee在評論這一發(fā)展時表示，氫氣已成為實(shí)現(xiàn)這些脫碳目標(biāo)的關(guān)鍵因素，KOGAS將在建設(shè)氫氣運(yùn)輸、儲存和配送基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施方面發(fā)揮主導(dǎo)作用，以實(shí)現(xiàn)這些目標(biāo)。

McDermott CB&I signs MoU with Korea Gas to support hydrogen economy

McDermott’s storage business unit, CB&I, and Korea Gas Corporation (KOGAS) have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to explore the development of large-scale liquid hydrogen storage to support Korea’s hydrogen economy roadmap, said Refiningandpetrochemicalsme.

Last year, South Korea announced plans to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050 by replacing coal-fired power generation with renewable sources and internal combustion engine vehicles with hydrogen-powered and battery-based electric vehicles, McDermott wrote in a statement.

KOGAS has grown into the largest LNG-importing company in the world and operates four LNG regasification terminals and 4,945 kilometres of natural gas pipelines in South Korea. the statement noted.

Commenting on the development, Seung Lee, executive vice president of KOGAS said: “Hydrogen has emerged as a key enabler to meet these decarbonization goals and KOGAS will play a leading role in building the infrastructure for hydrogen shipping, storage and distribution to make these ambitions a reality.”
