Riyadh-based Saudi Arabian Mining Company (Ma’aden) reported that it has been certified by the international assessor, Norway’s DNV, as having produced 614,000 mt of ultra-low carbon ammonia, representing the largest quantity accredited in the world to date.
In a media statement, Ma’aden said the accreditation is a significant step in its plans to grow and transform its business to become an ESG role model in the Kingdom. This follows Ma’aden’s ambitious program to ship over 138,000 mt of blue ammonia to major global markets, including the European Union and China (GM Oct. 28, 2022).
“With a world leading fertilizer business which is now the second largest exporter of phosphate fertilizers, there is significant potential for Ma’aden to consolidate its presence as a leading producer of ultra-low carbon ammonia,” the Saudi company said.
