Low Carbon LNG

SK Innovation E&S shifts to a low carbon LNG business based on the CCS technology
that captures and stores carbon dioxide generated when natural gas is produced.
  • Transition to green LNG BM
    through the CCS technology
  • Contribution to the hydrogen ecosystem
    by producing blue hydrogen, etc.
  • Expansion of new growth
    LNG demand such as companies

SK Innovation E&S will secure the world's top-level CCS technology
to strengthen the eco-friendliness and
sustainability of the LNG value chain
from gas field
development to LNG generation business.

UPSTREAM

Upstream is a field of exploration, development, and production of natural gas. SK Innovation E&S is conducting global projects around the world.
  • Barossa-Caldita project in Australia

    We have secured a stake in the Barossa-Caldita offshore gas field in Australia and are working on a joint project with Santos Australia. SK Innovation E&S plans to produce low-carbon LNG using CCS technology from 2025 by utilizing nearby Darwin LNG liquefaction plants.

MIDSTREAM

Midstream is an intermediate stage of the LNG value chain that liquefies, transports, stores, regasifies, and distributes the natural gas which is secured upstream. SK Innovation E&S has established the entire midstream area by securing the liquefaction facilities and LNG vessels from Freeport LNG of the U.S. and operating Boryeong LNG Terminal.
  • Have a liquefaction terminal in the U.S.

    SK Innovation E&S signed an agreement on the use of natural gas liquefaction facilities with an annual capacity of 2.2 million tons with Freeport LNG, an American firm. It has imported American shale gas since 2020.
  • Freeport project
  • Boryeong LNG Terminal
  • Built Boryeong LNG Terminal

    SK Innovation E&S has jointly operated Boryong LNG Terminal with GS Energy since 2017.
    It is a facility that imports LNGs secured from abroad into Korea, then unloads, stores, mechanizes, and transmits them, and it is a key infrastructure of LNG midstream in Korea.
  • Secured LNG carrier

    To transport shale gas liquefied in Freeport Terminal in the U.S., SK Innovation E&S has been Korea's first private operator of a fleet only for the transportation since 2019.

DOWNSTREAM

Downstream is a business area that supplies or sells various energy sources including electricity and city gas so that customers can safely and conveniently use them. SK Innovation E&S is Korea's leading energy company that produces and sells electricity and thermal power though LNG power generation and combined heat & power (CHP) generation.
  • Map of China LNG Terminal
  • Secured LNG terminal in China and sold LNG in China.

    In July 2020, it secured a stake in Zhouxian LNG Terminal in Zhejiang Province, China, supplying about 500,000 tons of LNG annually to China.
  • Contribute to power supply in Korea by operating natural gas power plants

    SK Innovation E&S operates a natural gas power plant that uses natural gas to produce electricity and is responsible for domestic energy supply and demand.
