Lloyd’s Register (LR) has signed a memorandum of understanding with DAI Infrastruktur GmbH (DAI) for Project Ra, a significant green ammonia production and bunkering development in East Port Said, Egypt. This collaboration aims to address the International Maritime Organization’s greenhouse gas reduction measures by providing access to low- and zero-carbon fuels as required from 2030 onwards. Project Ra is expected to have a production capacity of 2 million tonnes of green ammonia annually, with a majority of 1.65 million tonnes derived from renewable energy sources. The strategic location of the facility near the Suez Canal positions it as a critical bunkering hub for ammonia-fueled vessels in a key shipping route. LR will deliver various advisory services throughout the project lifecycle, including market analyses, infrastructure planning, regulatory guidance, emissions analysis, and concept design reviews. The CEO of DAI Infrastruktur emphasized the importance of Project Ra in providing green ammonia at the necessary scale and reliability for the maritime sector, with LR's advisory support crucial for meeting international standards and long-term industry requirements. Additionally, Project Ra is set to play a crucial role in supplying green ammonia to European ports, particularly in Germany and Greece, for various applications such as bunkering fuel, electricity generation, and emissions reduction in industrial processes like steel production. This initiative aligns with the broader goal of transitioning towards sustainable energy sources and reducing carbon emissions in the shipping industry and beyond.
