Koil Energy Solutions to Provide Hydrogen Energy Services

The subsea technology solutions provider makes paramount move into the energy transition supporting a global developer of hydrogen infrastructure


HOUSTON, May 19, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Koil Energy Solutions, Inc. (Koil), formerly known as Deep Down, Inc. (OTCQB: DPDW), an international specialist in subsea energy equipment and services, today announced the receipt of an order to provide hydrogen energy related services. Following its recent rebrand, this is the company’s first commercial success in support of the energy transition.

“This award, direct from a major energy producer, validates our strategy to shift focus from core products and services to core competencies, confirms the viability of our decision to rebrand the company, and supports our relocation to a facility geared towards compartmentalized production of a diverse suite of products,” said Charles Njuguna, President and CEO of Koil Energy Solutions, Inc. “Being selected to provide solutions for a nascent industry is a testament to the transferability of expertise developed over the past 25 years.”

The project will initially focus on storage, management and enhancement of customer furnished materials utilizing Koil’s alloy welding and other fabrication capabilities. Following validation of early-stage activities, future phases could lead to systems integration activities potentially including the commissioning of systems being developed for the retail consumer market.

“This is a critical project for the company, as it allows us to showcase our ability to support the energy transition,” said Njuguna. “Being able to offer services for onshore applications further highlights the breadth of opportunities available to us.”
