Justyn Wood

In 2017, Justyn became aware of the potential for a Tier-1 helium resource in the East African Rift basins of Tanzania and formed Noble Helium with Co-founder Mr Walter Jennings.

Justyn brings 30 years of geoscience and management experience to the business, having worked with majors and super-majors Repsol and Chevron and juniors Oil Company of Australia, Hardman Resources and Jacka Resources Australia. He has explored over 35 petroleum systems in 25 different countries, with career highlights including key roles in unlocking the then frontier petroleum provinces of the East African Rift System (EARS) and the Guyana margin of NE South America which has resulted in multi-billion-dollar value creation.
In 2026, as Chief Exploration Officer (CXO) for Noble Helium, Mr. Wood is focussing his expertise on unlocking the exceptional helium potential of the Rukwa basin, Tanzania, aiming to maximise value for shareholders through application of leading-edge technology and know-how. The Company aims to establish Tanzania as a vast, geopolitically independent new source of helium and contribute meaningfully to the security of the global supply chain for this critical, rare, high-value, technology-enabling gas.
