<\/a><\/p>\nLocated in one of Europe\u2019s most important energy and logistics gateways, the EcoLog Terminal is poised to become core infrastructure supporting the decarbonization of key industrial sectors \u2013 steel production, heavy-duty mobility, maritime transport and data centers \u2013 across Northern Europe.<\/p>\n
Once operational (targeted for end of 2030), the terminal will receive, store and distribute both gaseous and liquid hydrogen while also managing LCO\u2082 for reuse or permanent storage abroad. Initial annual throughput is planned at 200,000 tonnes of LH\u2082 and 1.8 million tonnes of LCO\u2082, with potential expansion to 600,000 tonnes and 4.25 million tonnes respectively.<\/p>\n
To enable large-scale LH\u2082 transportation, EcoLog is developing a new generation of purpose\u2011designed liquid hydrogen carriers that will directly serve the terminal.<\/p>\n
KBR\u2019s FEED Scope: Setting Global Benchmarks for LH\u2082 Engineering<\/p>\n
Under this FEED award, KBR will define the terminal\u2019s engineering basis, storage systems, operational envelope and safety standards, laying crucial foundations for the world\u2019s first commercial LH\u2082 import system and its associated cryogenic infrastructure. The FEED is expected to be complete in 2026.<\/p>\n
Jay Ibrahim, President, KBR Sustainable Technology Solutions, said:<\/p>\n
KBR brings decades of deep technical expertise in complex energy infrastructure, including our work with NASA developing liquid hydrogen systems,<\/p>\n
\u201cThis project represents a historic first for the industry and positions both KBR and EcoLog at the forefront of technologies that will shape future low\u2011carbon supply chains.\u201d<\/p>\n
Creating a Complete End\u2011to\u2011End LH\u2082 and CO\u2082 Value Chain<\/p>\n
The EcoLog Terminal Amsterdam is expected to unlock new international supply routes by connecting future hydrogen and CO\u2082 production hubs with industrial demand centers across Europe.<\/p>\n
The design will incorporate multiple transport modalities, including:<\/p>\n
Dual hydrogen pipeline connections (high- and low\u2011pressure)<\/p>\n
A dedicated CO\u2082 pipeline<\/p>\n
A truck loading facility<\/p>\n
A barge jetty<\/p>\n
Rail access<\/p>\n
KBR\u2019s work will also include integrating the terminal with EcoLog\u2019s next\u2011generation LH\u2082 vessels and downstream distribution systems. A key engineering focus will be capturing and re\u2011utilizing the cold energy released during LH\u2082 regasification to efficiently liquefy CO\u2082\u2014an innovation that enhances both sustainability and system performance.<\/p>\n
EcoLog\u2019s Perspective: A Milestone for Europe\u2019s Energy Transition<\/p>\n
Ellen Ruhotas, CEO of EcoLog, said:<\/p>\n
Commissioning FEED is a proud moment for the entire EcoLog team,<\/p>\n
\u201cThe EcoLog Terminal Amsterdam holds great promise for Europe\u2019s decarbonization ambitions, and we look forward to bringing this to fruition together with KBR.\u201d<\/p>\n
Advancing Global Standards for Liquid Hydrogen Infrastructure<\/p>\n
Beyond its commercial importance, the project offers a rare opportunity to define global engineering standards for LH\u2082 transport, handling and storage at scale\u2014critical components in enabling a robust hydrogen economy.<\/p>\n
With strong momentum in clean energy markets, this project marks another major step in KBR\u2019s expansion across CO\u2082 management, hydrogen solutions, cryogenic systems and next\u2011generation low\u2011carbon infrastructure.<\/p>\n
