Oman implements Arab world’s first liquefied hydrogen project
Oman is working to establish the world’s first commercial corridor to export liquid hydrogen, TV BRICS reported on Friday. Liquid hydrogen is produced by cooling and liquefying hydrogen to minus 253°C.
As a result, its volume is reduced to approximately 1/800th of its gaseous volume, making it possible to transport it over long distances in specialised tankers.
Liquefied hydrogen is stored in well-insulated double-walled tanks and transported by sea.
Upon arrival at its destination, it is converted back into a gaseous state and then fed into local networks for delivery to consumers.
Oman is working to establish a corridor for such transport, which will run from the port of Duqm, located in the Al Wusta Governorate on the Arabian Sea coast.
The countries signed an agreement on the corridor’s development in April 2025.
The project aims to enhance the countries’ energy security and accelerate progress toward carbon neutrality.
It will also strengthen Oman’s status as a global hub for clean energy production and export.
