Hydrogen Systems to establish Oman’s first H2 station in 2024
The company has been awarded a contract by Shell Oman to design, develop and install the first hydrogen refueling station of the country.
Shell Development Oman has awarded Hydrogen Systems with a contract to design, develop and install the country’s first hydrogen refueling station.
The Saudi Arabia-based company will be responsible for the detailed engineering, procurement, quality assurance and control of electrolysers, compression, storage, chilling and dispensing. It will also be in charge of all associated subsystems – utilities, interconnecting piping, safety, communications, electrical, control and instrumentation – for a green hydrogen generation and refueling station in Muscat.
The station’s construction is part of the partnership signed between Shell and Oman Airports for the development of several green hydrogen projects announced back in March.
“This collaboration with a leading global energy company like Shell further consolidates Hydrogen Systems’ position as a leader in the hydrogen technology sector, leveraging its expertise and innovative solutions to advance the adoption of hydrogen as a clean and sustainable energy source,” said Sattam Alsuwailem, CEO of Hydrogen Systems.
The site is expected to be operational by 2024 and Walid Hadi, VP and Country Chairman of Oman Shell, also announced that it is set to be partially solar-powered and include multiple mobility solutions. These include electric vehicle charging equipment alongside hydrogen fuelling units and other fuelling products and non-fuel retail products and services.
