This technology reduces greenhouse gas emissions by up to 10% and reduces fuel consumption. Which contributes to reducing operational costs.

Shell is participating in the implementation of the “H2R” project with leading companies in its field, such as “Ocyan”, “LZ Energia” and “Protium Dynamics”, and this partnership is evidence of Shell’s commitment In cooperation with various parties to achieve sustainability goals, and its firm commitment to protecting the environment and reducing its impact on the planet.

The H2R project is considered an important achievement for Shell in its journey towards achieving carbon neutrality, and represents a milestone in its efforts to protect the environment and promote sustainability in the oil and gas sector.
