Air Liquide strengthens its US Gulf Coast footprint and invests 50 million USD to support new long-term hydrogen supply agreements

Air Liquide has secured new long-term hydrogen supply agreements that will significantly reinforce its presence in Texas. To meet this increased demand, Air Liquide will invest in optimizing its existing hydrogen infrastructure. The total investment of nearly 50 million USD will allow strategic upgrades to its pipeline system and new compression and distribution equipments integrated directly into its existing network. This approach enables increased supply capabilities with minimal greenfield development, leveraging Air Liquide’s established assets efficiently.

Connected to the world’s largest hydrogen cavern in Spindletop, Texas – owned and operated by Air Liquide – the Group’s hydrogen network infrastructure in the U.S. Gulf Coast is uniquely positioned to address the critical supply demands of large industries. By leveraging these established assets, Air Liquide can efficiently extend its reach and capacity, ensuring reliable and flexible supply for its partners.
