Hydrom

Hydrom is the central entity in charge of developing Oman’s green hydrogen sector. It is fully owned by Energy Development Oman and regulated by the Ministry of Energy and Minerals, with a core mandate to create hydrogen industries and hubs that are internationally competitive, commercially successful and support Oman’s foreign direct investment and 2050 net-zero targets.

Main areas of activity:

• Master planning: devise comprehensive strategies for the development of green hydrogen industries and hubs in Oman
  Land management: allocate government land to green hydrogen projects
• Project structuring and auctions: manage the bidding processes for project allocation, including qualification phases and formal requests for proposals and quotes
• Infrastructure development: co-ordinate and facilitate the construction of shared infrastructure for production, gathering, storage and transportation
• Project oversight: oversee the execution of green hydrogen projects in collaboration with stakeholders, including government agencies and international companies
• Data management: maintain a repository of data on wind and solar resources to support project planning and execution

Hydrom aims to produce around 1 million tonnes per year (tpy) of green hydrogen by 2030, 3.75 million tpy by 2040 and 8.5 million tpy by 2050. As of Q2 2025, the company has awarded 9 projects for an estimated investment of more than USD 49 billion towards its 2030 target.

The company is targeting the completion of a 2,000-kilometre pipeline network by 2050 to connect the country’s production infrastructure to end users. In anticipation of the distribution requirements expected to materialise during the project, Hydrom has a standing partnership with Omani logistics provider Asyad Group to supply hydrogen to domestic industries.

Hydrom acts as a liaison with domestic international stakeholders in the hydrogen economy, such as infrastructure and project developers, financial partners, equipment providers and industrial offtakers.
