S-Oil and Saudi Aramco on Tuesday signs four memorandum of understanding contracts during an investment forum held at a hotel in Riyadh in Saudi Arabia. Under agreement, S-Oil will bring in Saudi Aramco’s competitive blue hydrogen and blue ammonia to Korea and the two parties will jointly build related infrastructure, as well as collaborate on R&D and explore new business opportunities in the sector.
The agreements were announced on the sidelines of a meeting between Korean President Moon Jae-in and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud.
Shares of S-Oil were trading 6.98 percent higher at 98,100 won ($82.2) by midday Wednesday.
S-Oil and Saudi Aramco also plan to promote joint R&D on hydrogen production, new technology development in hydrogen production and carbon capturing, research on carbon-neutral fuel e-Fuel, and plastic reusing technology development.
The two companies will also invest together in Korean venture firms in new energy technology and decarbonization sectors. S-Oil is expected to apply Saudi Aramco’s Thermal Crude to Chemicals technology to its second phase petrochemical investment Shaheen Project.
S-Oil has been putting out efforts to advance into hydrogen industry. Last year, the company secured a 20 percent stake in fuel energy venture firm FCI. It also joined a consortium with Samsung C&T and Korea Southern Power for a clean hydrogen project.
