Hyundai Heavy Industries Holdings has signed a deal to import liquefied petroleum gas from state-run oil firm Saudi Aramco to produce blue hydrogen.
Under the deal, Hyundai Oilbank, HHIH's refining unit, will import liquefied petroleum gas from Saudi Aramco. The refining unit will also be provided with blue ammonia to fuel its liquefied natural gas (LNG) boiler.
Hyundai Oilbank will then sell blue hydrogen as a fuel for vehicles and thermal power plants and use it in desulfurization equipment.
