Oman inks binding deals with six green hydrogen projects
The projects combined are expected to produce more than 700,000t/yr of hydrogen and require $20bn in investment

These include two projects by BP—one in Duqm and another in Dhofar—as well as the 1.8mn t/yr Green Energy Oman project, in which Shell took an operating stake earlier this year. Other projects that signed agreements include a green hydrogen and ammonia project in Duqm developed by India’s Acme; Hyport in Duqm developed by Belgium’s Deme and Omani state-owned OQ; and SalalaH2 in Salalah developed by a consortium of OQ, Japan’s Marubeni, industrial gases firm Linde, UAE engineering firm Dutco. Combined, the projects are expected to produce more than 700,000t/yr of green hydrogen to be used for both
