Abraj, PDO expand partnership with new contract
MUSCAT: Abraj Energy Services has signed a strategic agreement with Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) to deploy six onshore drilling rigs in Block 6, a key asset in the Sultanate of Oman's energy sector. Drilling operations will be phased in from the fourth quarter of 2026. This marks a major expansion in the longstanding collaboration between Abraj and PDO, underlining the company's expertise in delivering high-performance, safe, and reliable drilling solutions aligned with international standards. Hood bin Khalfan al Barashdi, Acting General Manager of Business Development at Abraj, said the agreement highlights the company's reputation for operational excellence and the trust it has earned through safe and efficient service delivery. He emphasised that the deal reflects Abraj's broader strategy to strengthen its role in advancing the energy sector while maximising in-country value (ICV). The partnership with PDO forms part of Abraj's wider growth strategy. The company has recently secured additional contracts, including a new deal with BP Oman for drilling services in Block 61, and an agreement with ARA Petroleum Limited to drill three wells in Block 44. It has also reinforced its regional presence through the deployment of a third 3,000-horsepower rig in the Wafra field, jointly operated by Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. Engineer Sulaiman bin Abdullah al Salmi, Head of PDO's Gas Well Drilling Team, noted the enduring commitment shown by Abraj to operational integrity, health, and safety. He said the latest agreement reflects the joint ambition of both parties to drive sustainable growth in Oman's oil and energy sectors. Since 2020, Abraj has contributed more than RO 850 million in ICV, achieving an Omanisation rate close to 93 per cent. Over the last three years, activities linked to PDO alone have generated RO 79.1 million in ICV—accounting for 78 per cent of total spending. These figures underscore Abraj's contribution to national development goals. In 2024, the company posted strong financial results with revenues of RO 151.6 million, EBITDA of RO 53 million, and a net profit of RO 16.9 million. Abraj also achieved a remarkable safety record, completing three consecutive years of operations with zero lost-time injuries (LTI) across all units. Rig utilisation rates exceeded 86 per cent for drilling and reached 100 per cent for well maintenance, further demonstrating the resilience and reliability of its services. — ONA

Pact signed to develop natural hydrogen value chain
MUSCAT: SOHAR Port and Freezone has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with HYNAT SA, a pioneering Swiss company specialised in the research, exploration, and exploitation of hydrogen, to advance the development of a comprehensive natural hydrogen value chain in the Sultanate of Oman. This partnership marks a significant step toward establishing a robust hydrogen ecosystem in SOHAR, with a focus on natural hydrogen as an emerging low-carbon energy source. The collaboration will focus on the identification and assessment of natural hydrogen production areas, development of logistics corridors, and the creation of dedicated storage and processing infrastructure. It will also encompass demand mapping across industry, mobility, and logistics, while exploring export potential for this low-carbon energy source. The agreement builds on an earlier MoU signed between HYNAT and the Ministry of Energy and Minerals (MEM) in February 2025, which granted HYNAT the rights to conduct feasibility studies. The joint roadmap includes defined operational targets, and a development timeline aligned with Oman's broader clean energy transition strategy. Emile Hoogsteden, CEO of SOHAR Port, commented: 'This agreement reinforces SOHAR Port and Freezone's commitment to advancing Oman's clean energy vision by supporting the exploration and development of natural hydrogen. Through this partnership with HYNAT SA, we are laying the foundation for a future hydrogen economy, positioning SOHAR as a key gateway for low-carbon solutions and sustainable industrial growth. Stéphane Aver, Chairman of HYNAT SA, said: 'The signing of this agreement demonstrates our commitment to further developing natural hydrogen as a renewable and low-carbon resource. Together with SOHAR Port and Freezone, we aim to accelerate the energy transition and unlock a new pillar of economic value and sustainability.' SOHAR Port and Freezone continues to play a leading role in supporting Oman's Vision 2040 by promoting investments in renewable energy, industrial decarbonisation, and sustainable logistics. With HYNAT SA's advanced geological expertise and cutting-edge AI-powered detection technologies, this partnership is set to explore the untapped potential of natural hydrogen as a critical component of the global energy mix.
