About Koloma
Denver-based Koloma is focused on exploring and developing natural hydrogen resources as a new source of clean energy. The company applies proprietary technology, subsurface data and expertise to identify prospective natural hydrogen systems and assess their potential for development.
Its work spans exploration, geological characterization, data analysis and resource evaluation, with the goal of building a scalable foundation for natural hydrogen production.
By combining modern methods with established energy-sector technologies and workflows, Koloma seeks to improve understanding of subsurface hydrogen systems and support decisions as the industry develops.
The company is advancing an emerging energy opportunity while working to reduce the resources, infrastructure and environmental footprint associated with energy production.
Its collaboration with technology providers such as GeoComputing supports the computing-intensive analysis required to evaluate geological environments and large volumes of exploration data.
In addition to supporting day-to-day production workflows, RiVA offers an integrated disaster recovery solution to support business continuity and data resilience across operations.
About GeoComputing Group
GeoComputing Group provides highperformance computing, cloud and petro-technical solutions designed to support energy exploration and production workflows. Its RiVA private cloud platform combines infrastructure, applications and technical expertise to help energy organizations accelerate data-intensive workflows, improve operational efficiency and support business continuity.
“ Koloma is revolutionizing the industry with its approach to identifying and harnessing subsurface natural hydrogen to unlock a new primary energy source that is fundamentally critical to supporting today’ s growing energy needs,” said John Creevan, CEO, GeoComputing.“ We share in employing a data-driven approach to exploring and excavating fuel sources, traditional or alternative, in a way that minimizes risks and costs while maximizing accessibility and output. By running its applications on the RiVA platform, Koloma will be able to improve hydrogen exploration and analysis outcomes for a superior return on investment compared with other onpremises or public cloud offerings.” •
