Cyan Ammonia FPSO

September 2023 After a year of R&D, we filed our formal patent for an FPSO capable of producing H2 and/or NH3.  The Cyan Ammonia FPSO is targeted for flared and stranded gas around the world with the option of replacing the front-end of the plant (i.e., the gas to H2) with electrolyzers in the future enabling the facility to be repurposed to produce H2/NH3 from renewable energy when these technologies become economically viable.  While the FLNG solution is suitable for dry gas fields and shallow-sheltered waters, it is challenging to commercialize in un-sheltered water and for rich gas.  It is almost impossible to commercialize offshore stranded gas where the LNG production is below 1 MMTPA (133 mmscfd)  What we discovered during our research (and analysis of 70 associated gas streams from 200 fields) was that the heating value of the associated gas, currently being flared or reinjected, can range from dry to very wet (1760 btu /scf), with an average heating value of roughly 1250 b
