Muscat — Hydrom, the driver of Oman’s green hydrogen strategy, has signed a strategic agreement with Ankaa Space & Technologies LLC to operate and manage wind measurement stations across the Sultanate. The partnership aims to enhance the accuracy and continuity of renewable resource assessments, producing high-quality data to support project planning and accelerate the development of large-scale green hydrogen projects in Oman.
The collaboration reflects Hydrom’s commitment to building a delivery-ready green hydrogen ecosystem, fostering local expertise, empowering Omani talent, and promoting in-country value. Through the agreement, Hydrom will provide technical guidance to Ankaa, develop work plans, and implement training programs, allowing Omani professionals to gain hands-on experience in wind and solar resource measurement, station operations, and data management.
“This agreement marks a key step in engaging Omani enterprises and specialised talent in green hydrogen project delivery,” said Eng. Abdulaziz bin Said al Shidhani, Managing Director of Hydrom. “These efforts strengthen Oman’s capacity to localise critical technologies and advance projects toward bankable outcomes.”
Mohammed al Riyami, CEO of Ankaa Space & Technologies, added: “We are committed to executing this agreement to the highest standards and building national capabilities in renewable resource measurement and land study technologies. Partnering with Hydrom provides a model of effective public–private collaboration that supports Oman’s vision to localise value chains and develop specialised national expertise.”
The milestone supports Oman’s broader green hydrogen objectives by enhancing data reliability, expanding local participation, and deepening national capabilities in renewable energy. It further positions the Sultanate as an investment-ready ecosystem and a regional hub for the production and export of green hydrogen.
