‍

Australia’s Provaris Energy has opened for business in Europe, setting up an office in Oslo.

The Sydney-listed group is developing hydrogen shipping solutions, including new compressed gas carriers.

It brought in experienced gas executive Per Road as chief technical officer in February.

Now he has relocated to Norway to spearhead Provaris’ European drive.

Chief executive Martin Carolan said: “We are excited to have established a European subsidiary, Provaris Norway, and corporate office in Oslo.

“Europe is a key region of our focus for the commercialisation of integrated compressed hydrogen supply chain solutions. The location of Norway is strategic, and we expect it to remain an important region long-term.”
