Air Products' Sarnia, Canada Hydrogen Plant Now On-Stream

Company's Second Canadian Hydrogen Plant Commercialized

08-04-2006: Air Products Canada Ltd., a subsidiary of Air Products, announced that its new hydrogen plant in Sarnia, Ontario, Canada is on-stream and supplying 80 million standard-cubic-feet-per-day (MMSCFD) of hydrogen to two nearby refineries. The facility is the largest plant outsourcing hydrogen in Canada and the second new Air Products facility to supply hydrogen to Canadian refineries and other customers. In June, Air Products announced the commercialization of a large-scale steam methane reformer hydrogen plant in Strathcona County, near Edmonton, Alberta.

The new Sarnia hydrogen production facility, a natural gas-based steam methane reformer, will help refineries operated by Suncor Energy Products, Inc. and Shell Canada Products produce ultra low sulphur diesel and other petroleum products. The Air Products facility is located on a part of the Shell refinery land and supplies hydrogen by pipeline to the nearby Suncor refinery. The new Sarnia hydrogen production facility is also interconnected with Air Products' existing hydrogen liquefaction facility located nearby.

The second Canadian hydrogen facility is the 25th to be built under the global alliance between Air Products and Technip. Technip provides the design and construction expertise for steam reformers while Air Products provides the gas separation technology.
