HYTERRA APPOINTS CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
HyTerra Limited (ASX: HYT, OTCQB: HYTLF, Frankfurt: 8TP0) ( HyTerra or the Company ) is pleased to announce the appointment of Riley Kemp as Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately.
HIGHLIGHTS
-
Appointment of Riley Kemp as CEO.

Riley is an seasoned legal and commercial professional with 15 years of global experience.
-
His role will be to focus on driving the direction and growth of HyTerra, building global relationships and partnerships and strengthening the market profile.
-
Riley’s decision to join HyTerra reflects his belief in the Company’s strong market potential and momentum.
Riley brings more than 15 years’ experience across global energy and resources markets in both ASX-listed and private companies, as well as exposure to a range of other international sectors through his commercial, corporate development and advisory roles. His career has centred on driving growth, building strategic partnerships and delivering commercial outcomes that support long-term value creation.

Riley has worked in Perth and London for a multinational law firm and global companies in roles spanning corporate advisory, commercial transactions including IPO’s, capital raisings, mergers and acquisitions (including major transactions in the Oil and Gas and Mining sectors) and broader commercial work, contributing to investment and growth initiatives across multiple international markets.
Most recently, Riley served as Corporate Development Manager at Fortescue after joining in August 2022, where he worked broadly across both Mining and Energy, including leading the commercial activities for geologic hydrogen. In this role, he played a central part in Fortescue’s A$21.9 million strategic investment in HyTerra in December 2024 and has since worked closely with the Company under the Strategic Alliance between Fortescue and HyTerra.

This partnership supported HyTerra’s successful drilling campaign in Kansas, during which the Company established itself as an early leader in the geologic hydrogen industry. Riley resigned from Fortescue in early December to join HyTerra.
As CEO, Riley will be responsible for building global relationships and partnerships, strengthening the market profile, accelerating HyTerra’s growth and advancing the Company’s ambition to play a leading role globally in the development of geologic hydrogen. He will oversee key project decisions, with a particular focus on commercialisation pathways, offtake opportunities and strengthening relationships with strategic partners.
Riley’s decision to join HyTerra reflects his belief in the Company’s strong market position and momentum, its clear pathway for growth and the broader opportunity to help shape a new sector within the global energy landscape.
Commenting on his appointment, CEO Riley Kemp said :
“ Over the past eighteen months, I’ve seen first-hand the progress HyTerra has made and the significant opportunity it is positioned to capture. The success of the 2025 drilling campaign has created real momentum, and HyTerra has now established itself as a leader in the emerging geologic hydrogen industry. I look forward to working with the team and strategic partners to build on that momentum and deliver on the many opportunities ahead.”
Russell Brimage, Non-Executive Chairman, said : “ We are very pleased to have attracted someone of Riley´s calibre to HyTerra. He has joined us because he believes in the vision and future of HyTerra and is fully committed to taking this incredible team and the building blocks in place to the next level. His skillsets and experience will strengthen the Company’s market profile as he shapes the direction of the Company .”
This announcement has been authorised for release by the Board of Directors.
