H2Carrier has been granted approval in principle (AiP) from class society DNV for the first design of an industrial scale floating green hydrogen and ammonia production and storage facility.
The concept, called P2XFloater, is based around making a life extension of an existing very large gas carrier (VLGC) and expanding upon its design by extending its hull to maximise production capacity.
Centred on proven floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) technologies, the unit produces green hydrogen by pumping onboard seawater from the ocean, purifying it and feeding it to electrolyzers. The green hydrogen is combined with nitrogen extracted from the air and synthesized in an ammonia generator to produce green ammonia. All steps are powered by renewable wind, solar or hydro energy through a power cable from a renewable power source next to the P2XFloater.
