日本語
オマーンが豊富に有する玄武岩を、低価値の原石輸出からBFRP鉄筋などの高付加価値製品へ転換する戦略を技術経済的に分析した研究。原石1トン約7.3ドルに対しBFRP鉄筋は2,500ドル超と300倍以上の価値増加を示し、LCCAで鋼材に対する経済優位性も確認する。さらに同一地質を大規模な永久炭素隔離やクリーン水素併産に活用する可能性も論じ、段階的ロードマップを提案する。
English
A screening-level techno-economic study of Oman's basalt reserves, contrasting raw export (~$7.30/t) with BFRP rebar (>$2,500/t) — a 300x+ value uplift — and showing via LCCA that BFRP outperforms steel in infrastructure. It also flags the Samail Ophiolite's potential for permanent carbon sequestration with clean hydrogen co-generation, proposing a phased roadmap toward green materials and energy-transition leadership.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
資源輸出依存からの脱却とGX産業育成を結びつける議論は、日本の資源外交・素材産業の高付加価値化やCCS適地評価を考える上での比較材料になる。ただし日本の制度・企業実務への直接の含意は限定的。
In the global GX context
Adds a resource-rich-economy perspective to the global transition debate, linking low-carbon materials (basalt fiber as a steel substitute) with permanent carbon sequestration and hydrogen — relevant to transition finance and industrial decarbonization narratives beyond the usual OECD/China focus.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:玄武岩繊維のLCCAや資源価値向上の定量比較は、低炭素素材とCCSの統合評価の一事例として参照できる。
🏢実務担当者:建設・素材企業にとって、鋼材代替のBFRPや玄武岩系素材の調達・事業機会を検討する際の基礎情報になる。
🏛政策担当者:資源国が一次産品依存を脱しGX産業と炭素隔離を組み合わせる政策設計の参考例となる。
📄 Abstract（原文）
In line with its Vision 2040 goals for economic diversification, the Sultanate of Oman holds extensive but largely untapped basalt reserves. This study presents a screening-level techno-economic analysis and strategic roadmap for transforming this indigenous resource from a low-value commodity into a cornerstone of a high-value and sustainable industrial ecosystem. The research methodology integrates a quantitative analysis of Oman's current basalt sector with a formal comparative economic model to quantify the potential for value addition. The study highlights a stark economic contrast: exporting raw basalt earns only about $7.30 per tonne, while converting it into Basalt Fiber Reinforced Polymer (BFRP) rebar can generate over $2,500 per tonne. The analysis shows a conservative value increase of more than 300 times, with a preliminary Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) demonstrating that BFRP significantly outperforms traditional steel economically in infrastructure projects. It also confirms that Omani basalt from the Samail Ophiolite is exceptionally well-suited for producing advanced fibers. Furthermore, this paper identifies and discusses a parallel strategic opportunity for Oman to leverage these same geological formations for large-scale, permanent carbon sequestration with the potential for clean hydrogen co-generation. The paper concludes by proposing a phased strategic roadmap for Oman, recommending the prioritized development of an integrated BFRP rebar value chain while initiating research into basalt-based climate technologies, thereby positioning the Sultanate as a future regional leader in both advanced green materials and the global energy transition.
