石油设备网讯 据路透社6月18日报道，石油巨头沙特阿美表示，它已经与世界领先的空气化工产品公司携手合作，在位于达兰科技谷科学园的新技术中心开设了第一个氢燃料站。
来自沙特阿美的一份声明称，该试验站最初将为六辆丰田Mirai燃料电池电动汽车组成的车队提供高纯度压缩氢气。
宣布之际正值国际社会日益认识到氢能源好处的时期。国际能源机构上周发布的一份报告得出结论，氢在帮助世界减少排放的同时在满足能源需求方面具有巨大潜力。
新试验站将沙特阿美的工业技术经验与空气化工产品公司在氢燃料领域的专业知识和经验相结合。
沙特阿美总裁兼首席执行官阿明·纳赛尔说:“这个试点项目是一个令人激动人心的机会，使我们双方共同展示了氢在交通运输领域的潜力和作为未来可持续燃料的可行性。”

Saudi Aramco, Air Products open Saudi Arabia's first hydrogen fuelling station
State oil giant Saudi Aramco said it has joined hands with Air Products, a world-leading industrial gases company in operation for over 75 years, to open the first hydrogen fuelling station at the latter’s new technology centre in the Dhahran Techno Valley Science Park.
The pilot station will fuel an initial fleet of six Toyota Mirai fuel cell electric vehicles with high-purity compressed hydrogen, said a statement from Saudi Aramco.
The announcement comes amid growing international recognition of hydrogen’s benefits. A report released last week by the International Energy Agency (IEA) concludes that hydrogen has vast potential to help the world reduce emissions while addressing its energy needs.
The new fuelling station combines Saudi Aramco’s industrial and technological experience with Air Products’ know-how and experience in the field of hydrogen fueling.
Saudi Aramco's president and CEO Amin H. Nasser said: "This pilot project represents an exciting opportunity for the duo to demonstrate the potential of hydrogen in the transport sector and its viability as a sustainable fuel for the future."
