The Gulf state of Oman plans to produce green hydrogen on a large scale with the help of German companies and research institutions and export it to Europe. The governments of both countries are paving the way for companies in various ways.
The Port of Sohar is expected to play a major role in exporting hydrogen from Oman to Germany. H2international spoke with Dr. Abdullah Al-Abri from Sohar Port and Freezone.
Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG (HHLA) is participating in an international partnership to develop the world’s first import corridor for liquid hydrogen. On April 15, 2025, during the state visit of the Sultan of Oman to the Netherlands, a corresponding development agreement was signed.
Wind, sun and loads of expertise – these ingredients are to be used intensively in Oman to produce green hydrogen in the future. In contrast to other Gulf states, the Sultanate is making great strides in this regard. The green hydrogen is to be exported, but also used locally. First projects are underway and the infrastructure is being expanded. Experts see Oman as a promising partner for the clean energy transition in Germany.
