Worley awarded contract for Shell’s renewable-hydrogen project in Rotterdam

Australia’s Worley has been awarded a renewable hydrogen project services contract by oil giant Shell supporting the delivery of Europe’s largest renewable hydrogen project located in the Port of Rotterdam in the Netherlands.

The contracts continue the close collaboration between Shell and Worley since late 2020, when Worley provided early engineering services for this project.

Under these contracts, Worley will provide detailed design and procurement, and construction management support services including the critical integration needed with key vendors and other assets such as offshore wind, pipelines, electrical grids and the refinery.

The 200MW electrolyser will be powered by renewable energy from an offshore wind farm that is currently under development. Once complete, HH1 will be the largest commercial renewable hydrogen production facilities in Europe. It will produce around 60,000 kg of hydrogen per day, enough to keep 2,300 hydrogen trucks rolling.
