In the Netherlands, Offshore Energy reported that Singapore’s Sembcorp Industries, through its subsidiary Sembcorp Utilities, has signed a joint development framework agreement (JDFA) with PT PLN Energi Primer Indonesia (EPI), a subsidiary of PT PLN (Persero), and PT Transportasi Gas Indonesia (TGI), a joint venture between PT Pertamina Gas Negara and Transasia Pipeline Company, to establish a potential hydrogen transportation pipeline connecting Sumatra, the Riau Islands in Indonesia and Singapore.

As announced on October 24, 2023, and October 21, 2024, Sembcorp and PT PLN EPI are partnering on the potential development of a green hydrogen production facility in Sumatra, Indonesia, with an annual capacity of 100,000 metric tons, according to the report.
