Barents Blue (includes Polaris)
The Barents Blue project aspires to produce at large scale, blue ammonia (3000 ton/d) and blue hydrogen (600 ton/d) with the CO2 produced to be captured and permanently stored in the Polaris aquifer, at the Barents Sea. The annual output of ammonia will be 1 Mtpa whereas the annual CO2 injection rate will be 2 Mtpa. The necessary gas feed 2.8 MSm3/d will come from the gas fields of the Barents Sea.
