El buque Neo Orbis, que se está construyendo en los astilleros holandeses de Next Generation Shipyard, será el primero en el mundo que navegue utilizando como energía el hidrógeno liberado de una sal llamada borohidruro de sodio (NaBH4).
Se trata de un innovador proyecto que tiene como objetivo alcanzar un transporte marítimo libre de emisiones contaminantes, de acuerdo al programa europeo H2 Ships. Está previsto que este prototipo sea utilizado en los canales de Amsterdam y en el canal que une el puerto de Amsterdam con el Mar del Norte.

Efforts continue to focus on the development of the hydrogen supply chain to support the development of alternative fuels for heavy industry. In the latest development, a group of leading European companies, including Shell New Energies, ENGIE, and Vopak along with shipping company Anthony Veder have agreed to work together to study the feasibility of producing, liquifying, and transporting green hydrogen from Portugal to the Netherlands, where it would then be stored and distributed for sale. Their goal is to complete the first shipment of hydrogen by 2027.

Oil majors must assess possible broader damage to their
corporate reputations and relationships if they stay
MARCH 4, 2022
In response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, British energy giant BP announced on February 27 that it will sell its nearly 20% ownership in Russian state-owned energy giant Rosneft. BP’s rival Shell is also pulling out of all of its operations in Russia, as are US energy giant ExxonMobil and Norway’s state-controlled company, Equinor.
These breakups will not be cheap. BP’s stake in Rosneft is worth US$14 billion. In various projects, Shell has about $3 billion in assets in Russia. ExxonMobil has over 1,000 employees and more than $4 billion in assets there. Pulling out will inflict significant financial hits on all of these companies.

LISBON/MADRID, Feb 24 (Reuters) - Spanish and Portugese officials called on Thursday for Europe to cooperate more closely on managing energy supplies after major producer Russia's invasion of Ukraine heightened fears of disruptions.
Unlike many of the countries on the continent, which in total relies on Russia for 40% of its gas, neither country on the Iberian peninsula counts Russia among its main providers.
Portuguese Prime Minister Antonio Costa said on Thursday that the Portuguese deep-water port of Sines - the closest European port to the United States, "has the infrastructure to host and export natural gas to Europe".
Costa told a news conference this would allow energy imports from the United States and Africa.
