Rock-Hydrogen Pilot Well
Sector: Water Supply and Storage • Location: Oman
Source: GeoExpro
The Rock-Hydrogen pilot well was drilled in early 2024 to a depth of 1,050 m in Oman to study stimulated hydrogen production through serpentinisation reactions in peridotite. The top 900 m were cased off, leaving 150 m of fresh peridotite exposed. Water was pumped downhole and the well was shut in to allow reactions to generate hydrogen gas. Flow testing after a year showed significant hydrogen ga

Description
Description | The Rock-Hydrogen pilot well was drilled in early 2024 to a depth of 1,050 m in Oman to study stimulated hydrogen production through serpentinisation reactions in peridotite. The top 900 m were cased off, leaving 150 m of fresh peridotite exposed. Water was pumped downhole and the well was shut in to allow reactions to generate hydrogen gas. Flow testing after a year showed significant hydrogen gas production without decline. |
