The Special Economic Zone at Duqm in Oman is gearing up for the country's first green hydrogen and ammonia venture, a significant endeavor that will propel the Sultanate of Oman into the gigawatt-scale green energy domain. The project, spearheaded by Green Hydrogen and Chemicals Company SAOC, a subsidiary of India's ACME Group, is estimated at around $750 million and is envisioned for expansion up to 1.1 million tonnes per annum. With the arrival of project cargo at Duqm, including heavy equipment and key components like solar PV modules and electrolysis systems, the venture is steadily moving towards its commissioning in the first quarter of 2027. Notable partnerships with companies like GameChange Solar, Sungrow Hydrogen, and Shuangliang Hydrogen ensure the procurement of essential technologies for the project. UAE-based DarkOcen Geostar's completion of the offshore geotechnical investigation signifies progress in marine infrastructure development. The Duqm green ammonia project is part of a larger initiative encompassing nine green hydrogen projects in Oman, with a total investment exceeding $40 billion. The successful implementation of the Duqm plant is crucial for Oman's hydrogen strategy, with Norwegian company Yara already committed to purchasing the full annual output of green ammonia. This venture not only marks a milestone for Oman's renewable energy landscape but also sets the stage for future green hydrogen endeavors in the region.
