Enbridge, Yara Teaming Up for $3B Ammonia Plant on Gulf Coast

Norway’s Yara Clean Ammonia (Yara) and Enbridge Inc. (Enbridge) are jointly developing and constructing a world scale low-carbon blue ammonia production facility as equal partners. The proposed facility will be located at the Enbridge Ingleside Energy Center (EIEC) near Corpus Christi, Texas. If it makes its way through the approval process, the total project investment is expected in the range of $2.6–$2.9 billion, with production start-up in 2027/2028.

Yara’s experience in ammonia development, production, operations and distribution, will combine with Enbridge’s large-scale infrastructure development expertise and EIEC deep water docks and export platform.

Enbridge’s Texas Eastern Transmission Pipeline is expected to provide the transportation service for feed gas that will be used for the production process, and Enbridge, along with Oxy Low Carbon Ventures, is advancing a nearby CO₂ sequestration hub which is a potential destination for the project’s captured CO₂.
