PetroStrat is pleased to be presenting and exhibiting at the 6th EAGE Global Energy Transition Conference and Exhibition (EAGE GET 2025). The conference will be held in the Rotterdam World Trade Centre, Netherlands, between October 27 and October 31.
As a leading provider of subsurface geoscience services, we are excited to attend this important event. Visit us at Booth 11 to learn more about how our team of world-leading geoscientists can support all your Energy Transition projects.
PetroStrat’s Role in the Energy Transition
PetroStrat has over 20 years of experience characterising the subsurface for energy and natural resource projects worldwide. We are now applying this expertise to help clients deliver secure and low-carbon energy solutions.
Our geoscience services can support these Energy Transition sectors.
- Carbon – We support CO₂ storage projects by offering a suite of subsurface services to empower geological characterisation and stratigraphic evaluation.
- Geothermal – Our subsurface workflows can be used to identify, assess, and optimise geothermal reservoirs.
- Hydrogen – Our geoscience team can evaluate natural hydrogen exploration projects and subsurface storage sites to assess safety and project long-term performance.
- Offshore Wind Energy – We provide geological and sedimentological insights, supporting site assessments and development plans.
These services are provided by PetroStrat’s multidisciplinary team of over 150 specialists.
PetroStrat Presentation: Integrated Exploration Strategy In Sedimentary basins
Presentation title: An Integrated Exploration Strategy: Natural Hydrogen Play Concepts In Super Sedimentary basins
Authors: Carolina Olivares, Joshua Turner, Michael Cairns and Maria Alejandra Hernandez
Date: Wednesday, Oct 29, 2025
Time: 09:45–10:05AM
Session: Oral Session – Natural Hydrogen
PetroStrat will present a natural hydrogen plays concept catalogue with a collection of the most relevant hydrogen play definitions (plate margins such as MOR and passive margins, ophiolite belts, rifting greenstone belts, exhumed mantle and forearc basins) organised by regions in selected worldwide super basins with the purpose of understanding and identifying fundamental attributes for natural hydrogen to occur.
Exclusive summary by Carolina Olivares and part of our Exploration team
Global Hydrogen production predominantly comes from industrial processes such as water electrolysis, methane reforming, fuel cells, ammonia production and byproducts from oil and gas. The hydrogen produced is high in carbon emissions, and the technology required to produce it involves high costs. These industrial processes require time to ensure and satisfy the hydrogen and energy market demand. As part of that demand, natural hydrogen is a fundamental piece of the energy transition strategy; it is clean, renewable and could potentially be used as carrier to obtain low-carbon transformations
This study portrays a selection of natural hydrogen play concepts occurring in and around oil and gas superbasins (Fryklund & Stark., 2020) with a focus on capturing exploratory risks (associated with geological processes, distribution, detection, resource potential estimation and infrastructure) associated mostly with serpentinisation and water radiolysis plays. This catalogue is a practical tool that could help in focusing efforts on prospective areas, ultimately developing efficient strategies to utilise remaining resources (oil and gas) and provide additional and cleaner sources of hydrogen to the global energy market. The catalogue is featuring stunning examples around the Taoudenni Basin in West Africa (Late Precambrian and Palaeozoic sediments), Northeastern margin of the Paris Basin (Iron banded deposits), the Mid Continent Basin complex (Kansas uplift and Nemaha Ridge), the South Australia basin (Late Precambrian and Cambrian sediments) and buried ophiolites.
