Natural hydrogen is a clean, cost-effective, and sustainable primary energy source that requires minimal land, water, and energy to extract.
But hydrogen exploration can be challenging.
Koloma Inc., a leading natural hydrogen exploration company, has adopted GeoComputing’s RiVA private cloud platform. It will serve as an integral part of its data-driven natural hydrogen exploration and analysis.
RiVA dramatically accelerates processing times, enabling tasks that once took days to be completed in a matter of hours, all while enhancing accuracy, reliability and overall workflow productivity.
Koloma selected GeoComputing’s RiVA platform to help overcome some of the exploration challenges facing the energy industry, which include poor system performance, complex environments, massive data volumes, dispersed teams, limited technical support and high deployment costs.
Moreover, Koloma leverages its cutting-edge technology, proprietary data, and deep industry expertise to identify and derisk areas with the potential for future natural hydrogen production in the United States and around the world.
By unlocking this vast, untapped resource, the company is shaping the future of scalable, cost-effective and sustainable clean energy.
Jerome Bellian, PHD, VP of Emerging Plays at Koloma, says they want to work with symbiotic partners in ways that will help accelerate global decarbonization efforts and usher in the next generation of global energy.
“GeoComputing’s history of shaping energy sector computing has made its RiVA platform an attractive choice for helping us with the performance and speed of operations required of our exploration workflows.
“Utilizing traditional Oil and Gas data and applications in a new emerging industry, it is critical that we have the best-in-class technology to make the most informed decisions quickly, and RiVA is the only technology on the market that allows us to do this.”

Richard Haynie, Head of IT at Koloma, stated that RiVA gave them the geoscience computing platform without having to build and support a costly specialized environment ourselves.
“GeoComputing was the most professional and supportive onboarding team I’ve worked with, partnering with us from user acceptance through implementation of the RiVA platform to deploy our geoscience applications and get our users productive quickly. Just as important, their support didn’t stop at go-live. Both IT and our geoscientists have direct access to engineers who understand both the platform and the applications they support, letting our lean IT team stay focused on enabling the business on a platform that scales with Koloma.”
John Creevan, CEO of GeoComputing, believes 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.
“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 that compares favorably to other on-premise or public cloud offerings.”
GeoComputing’s RiVA private cloud platform delivers unmatched performance and efficiency for the exploration and production (E&P) sector. In addition to supporting day-to-day production workflows, the RiVA platform offers a fully integrated disaster recovery solution to ensure business continuity and data resilience across its operations.
The RiVA platform expedites E&P workflows to achieve faster results. Each application is tested, deployed and becomes part of the RiVA landscape, providing an optimal experience for the end user.
