A method for the gasification of a hydrocarbon feedstock that has a high moisture content to produce useful co-products such as high-value hydrocarbon fuels, pure H<SUB>2</SUB>, electricity, and/or ammonia. The method advantageously gasifies the carbon in the feedstock to carbon monoxide (CO) without producing large quantities of carbon dioxide (CO<SUB>2</SUB>). Supplemental hydrogen (H<SUB>2</SUB>) is co-produced by reacting steam (H<SUB>2</SUB>O) generated from the moisture in the hydrocarbon feedstock with a molten metal.
