Johnson: Commercial hydrogen discoveries require 10k-50k tons annually over decades
“If you want to produce liquid hydrogen, you got to be producing 10,000 tons per year, give or take. If you want to be, you know, producing ammonia, you know, you're probably in the neighborhood of like, 50,000 tons per year is a good amount of hydrogen. So I w…”

Johnson: Underground helium traps prove geologic formations can seal hydrogen
“And the fact that we can find helium in traps and we find helium underground Tells you that there are sufficient traps and seals in nature that could hold a gas as small and light as hydrogen.”

Johnson: Microbes present a major preservation risk by consuming underground hydrogen
“If you get microbes into a hydrogen filled reservoir, that hydrogen will be gone. And so you have a preservation risk for hydrogen that you definitely wouldn't have for helium, which is, you know, no, nobody can metabolize that at all, but same with oil and ga…”

Johnson: A $10M stimulated hydrogen well needs $5M annual output
“If it's a ten million dollar system, you've got to pull out five million dollars a year of hydrogen out of that system to be comfortable with the return.”
