Fluxys and OQ Gas Networks SAOG (OQGN) have signed an agreement to jointly develop a hydrogen transportation network in Oman. Fluxys will participate as a minority shareholder, while OQGN will lead the project.
The planned hydrogen infrastructure aligns with Oman’s Vision 2040 and national hydrogen targets. Both companies aim to accelerate the country’s energy transition by enabling large-scale hydrogen transport.
