Do not price the hydrogen
before the well proves flow.
Put the next natural-hydrogen prospect through four evidence gates before funding the next well. The tool separates a real exploration option from a resource story that has not earned project economics.
Stabilized H2 purity×Sustained total-gas flow
Current verdict: real geology · disciplined exploration option · not yet a proved industrial resource
The one-page gate
Four proof packages
- Stabilized deliverability, pressure and decline
- Source, migration, reservoir and seal
- Full product, processing and offtake ledger
- Site-specific lifecycle carbon and policy fit
The decision board
Four ways to allocate capital
- Appraise a high-purity, connected accumulation
- Combine the ledger when co-products matter
- Size a local niche to credible low flow
- Stop when a sample substitutes for deliverability
Where should I send the gate?
It is free. I ask what brought you here so future field tools can answer the decisions developers, engineers and funders are actually facing.
Here you go.
Open the browser version or keep the landscape PDF beside the next test report. The gate is a diligence checklist, not a reserve estimate or investment recommendation.
