“Safety is a mindset that shall continuously influence decision-making processes across all organization levels. This starts with thorough/transparent risk evaluations. Being foreseen playing a critical role in the energy transition, this is crucial for Ammonia. ARISE project targets key knowledge gaps closure to improve ammonia risk assessment practices, it marks a key milestone to ensure ammonia’s safe deployment into the society. Leveraging our deep ammonia expertise, we’re committed to supporting ARISE, and we encourage the broader industry to join us in this effort."

Laurent Ruhlmann, HESQ Vice-President

“Equinor aims to reduce climate emissions from our operations and products. Ammonia is relevant as cargo and as a maritime fuel, and safety in this new sector is crucial. Understanding the consequences of accidental releases to/under seawater is vital knowledge for safety in design and operation. ARISE will reduce knowledge gaps in ammonia-seawater interactions, give important results for risk models, emergency preparedness and acceptance of ammonia as a marine fuel and energy carrier. The scale of the tests and realistic conditions are unique. ARISE is also an opportunity for collaboration with relevant players in the value chain on a topic of common interest."

"At the Lloyd’s Register Maritime Decarbonisation Hub, we are excited to fund and join the ARISE program, advancing ammonia as a zero-carbon maritime fuel. ARISE’s research on controlled ammonia releases will provide critical data on environmental and safety impacts, shaping regulations and accelerating ammonia adoption, helping the industry meet decarbonization targets informed with real world data while ensuring safety and sustainability."
