   Duqm term sheet

   Asyad Group and OQ Alternative Energy signed a term sheet for a proposed long-term hydrogen offtake agreement in Duqm.

2. 02

   91,000 kilograms a year

   The proposed agreement covers more than 91,000 kilograms of low-carbon hydrogen each year for a dedicated refuelling station.

3. 03

   8 to 10 trucks a day

   Asyad expects the volume to support 8 to 10 heavy-duty hydrogen trucks a day and displace about 1,100 litres of conventional fuel.

What happened

On 6 September 2026, Asyad Group and OQ Alternative Energy signed a term sheet for hydrogen supply in Duqm.

Asyad said the proposed agreement covers more than 91,000 kilograms of low-carbon hydrogen each year. The release says the hydrogen would use renewable energy and supply a dedicated refuelling station for Asyad's vehicle fleet.

Once the station operates, Asyad expects the volume to support 8 to 10 heavy-duty hydrogen trucks each day. It estimates that the trucks could displace about 1,100 litres of conventional fuel each day.

Why it matters

The proposal links a production project, a refuelling point, and a defined fleet use. This gives Oman a domestic hydrogen demand case that can generate operating data before larger projects scale.

It also shows that a local buyer can test supply, handling, safety, and use conditions together. That evidence may help later project and infrastructure decisions.

What changes for market participants

• Producers should define the energy source, production boundary, storage route, delivery point, and product claim before signing a final agreement.
• Buyers should set terms for volume, quality, delivery, uptime, refuelling, and evidence.
• Certifiers should confirm the applicable product and emissions scope. The release does not state that the supply has RFNBO or GHCI certification.
• Export developers should keep domestic operating evidence separate from RFNBO, GHCI, JCM, and other export claims.

HyGOAT implication

Screen should score this term sheet as preliminary demand, not firm revenue. MRV should link production, delivery, refuelling, and vehicle-use records.

Export readiness should record the buyer, asset, delivery point, proposed volume, evidence duties, and open contract terms. It should not treat the term sheet as a certificate or a final offtake commitment.

Risks and caveats

• The public release describes a term sheet. It does not confirm a binding long-term contract.
• The release does not disclose a price, commissioning date, delivery profile, or certification scheme.
• The proposed volume and fuel displacement remain subject to the refuelling station becoming operational.
