Eclipse Energy and Wood to scale hydrogen production from end-of-life oil fields
In Texas, Eclipse Energy and Wood have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to collaborate on the commercialization and global deployment of subsurface hydrogen production.
The partnership combines Wood’s global engineering, consulting, and decarbonization expertise with Eclipse’s subsurface hydrogen technology, which repurposes existing oil reservoirs into low-cost hydrogen-producing assets. It aims to advance hydrogen projects from early development to commercial execution. The partnership comes as Eclipse transitions from technology validation to commercial execution, with multiple projects progressing this year, the firm said.
“Scaling hydrogen requires more than innovation—it requires pragmatism,” said Prabhdeep Singh Sekhon, CEO of Eclipse Energy. “At Eclipse, we see the subsurface not as a legacy of the energy system, but as its next frontier. By converting end-of-life oil fields into productive hydrogen assets, we can deliver a pathway that is both economically and operationally viable. Partnering with Wood strengthens our ability to move projects forward at the pace and scale required in the global market.”
