SVP, Hydrogen & CCUS Development
INPEX
Shoichi Kaganoi currently serves as Senior Vice President of Hydrogen & CCUS Development at INPEX CORPORATION, the largest oil and gas exploration and production company in Japan. In this capacity, is responsible for the hydrogen, ammonia and CCUS/CCS project development.
Prior to his current role, Kaganoi served in leadership positions at INPEX’s Technical Division where he provided guidance and support for INPEX-operated projects worldwide. Kaganoi was previously also based in Australia, where he served as Deputy General Manager, Operations Production Support at INPEX’s Perth Office from September 2018 until March 2020, and as Engineering Manager, Ichthys LNG in Darwin in the Northern Territory from October 2014 until August 2018.

He also completed his master’s degree in Chemical Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin in 1997.
Asia is emerging as a key player in the hydrogen economy, supported by significant investments in low-carbon hydrogen and ammonia technologies. China may need to import substantial quantities of hydrogen by 2030 due to high domestic demand but could conversely also achieve near self-sufficiency, or become an exporter, depending on its success in scaling low-carbon hydrogen production and resolving infrastructural challenges. Meanwhile, Japan and South Korea could become major importers of hydrogen, driven by their high energy dependence and constraints in domestic renewable energy production. As Asian nations start to configure their hydrogen markets, the region provides a compelling case for the development of new technologies to produce lower cost hydrogen, as well as investments in a rapid expansion of enabling infrastructure for international hydrogen trade.
