Summary
Worley has been selected by Dow to provide front-end engineering design (FEED) under an EPCM contract for the cogeneration component of Dow’s Path2Zero project in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta, which aims to build the world’s first net-zero emissions integrated ethylene cracker.

What do you think will be the most critical factor for achieving net-zero in this project—cogeneration design, integration with the cracker, or access to low-carbon energy and infrastructure?

Worley Ltd. (North Sydney, Australia) has been selected by Dow (Midland, Mich.) to provide front-end engineering design (FEED) services under a new engineering, procurement, and construction management (EPCM) contract  for the cogeneration component of Dow’s Path2Zero project in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta. Dow’s Path2Zero expansion project will create the world’s first net-zero emissions integrated ethylene cracker […]

I’m curious how the cogen will track the cracker’s cyclic steam and power needs during furnace decokes and swing operations without resorting to venting or heavy attemperation. Will they design for island mode through Alberta grid events, and is the prime fuel hydrogen-rich offgas with CCS-backed natural gas as contingency or are major drives going electric? Those choices will make or break Scope 1 accounting and reliability for a true net-zero claim.
