Hydrogen production will scale up by several orders of magnitude in the coming decades. Blue hydrogen will be produced using CCS retrofits to existing plant. And to generate the additional hydrogen capacity, new on-purpose blue hydrogen plants will be built.

This course will explain how thermochemical hydrogen production technologies such as SMR, ATR and POX fit with integrated carbon capture. The optimum solution for on-purpose blue hydrogen production is very different to the optimum solutions that have been implemented in the past for grey. Value stacking to profitably utilise all the available process streams is also key to competitive success in the international energy market. Up to date project case studies will be used to provide real-life examples.

Using the right technologies can mean the difference between a good and an excellent project –profit margins, energy efficiency and return on capital are at stake. If you are investing in the hydrogen economy or considering technologies to implement, thinking through the options will be fundamental to your decision making. This course will provide some insights to support that process.


This course includes:

  • An engaging virtual training session lasting approximately three hours

  • Interactive format with dedicated Q&A sections with the expert trainer

  • Session recording & pdf file of the presentation used during the session

  • Flexible access from modern mobile and desktop devices

  • A certificate of attendance on completion of the session


Agenda

Attend live or watch the recordings. Each session includes dedicated Q&A sections throughout.

  • Integration of SMR/ATR plus CCS

  • Hydrogen vs syngas product requirements and their implication on technology selection

  • Pipeline pressure implications for technology selection

  • Value stacking with Ammonia production (a transportable hydrogen derivative)

  • Zero Carbon Humber / H2H Saltend case study

With a background in industrial and specialty gases, including 27 years at BOC Gases, The BOC Group and Linde Gas, Stephen has intimate knowledge of hydrogen and carbon dioxide from commercial, technical, operational and safety perspectives. His expertise extends to the full length of the value chain from production, purification, distribution and storage through to utilisation. For 14 years, he was a global business leader in these FTSE100 and DAX30 companies and had the opportunity to appreciate how businesses function and how people communicate around the world. 

Stephen has extensive buy-side and sell-side M&A due diligence experience in the energy and clean-tech sectors. In addition to supporting multi-billion Euro mega-transactions, he has advised numerous transactions involving the German 'Mittelstand‘ and European cross-border mid-market deals. Private Equity firms and investment fund managers are regular clients, gaining renewable energy sector insights to support asset allocation decisions.

As a member of the H2 View and gasworld editorial advisory boards, Stephen advises the direction of editorial content for these two leading international publications. In addition to writing editorial feature articles he specialises in C-level interviews. Working with Environmental Technology Publications, he is a member of the scientific committee for CEM 2023 - the leading international conference for continuous emissions monitoring and air quality.


What Attendees Are Saying

The best part of the training was the level of engagement from the trainer; he was very clear in his explanations and was taking the time to answer all queries from trainees.

Slides were informative, good delivery from the trainer, and technology worked well. Good idea to space it out over three days as it was less disruptive.
— Managing Director, Low Carbon
