Undoubtedly, for many years, oil and gas have been the bedrock of the Omani economy. It has a peculiar geographical position globally. Rich reserves build Oman into one of the most critical players in the global energy market. Recently, the Sultanate has been engaged in new oil and gas projects in Oman targeted at cementing this position and diversifying its energy portfolio.
Boosting Production and Diversification
New oil and gas projects will underpin Oman's growth aspirations. Such ventures will increase production capacity to provide a steady flow of energy both domestically and to an export market. Moreover, this does not refer to crude oil alone. The Sultanate also looks to business opportunities in the cleaner-burning natural gas and is currently involved in investing in liquefied natural gas facilities, thereby extending its export reach.
Infrastructure Development and Job Creation
This means that significant spending on related infrastructure—pipelines and refineries—goes toward new oil and gas projects in Oman. These projects provide a number of job opportunities, thus boosting the economy and creating good momentum for local businesses. Moreover, these projects need a qualified workforce, which immediately generates increased demand for special education and training.
This is epitomized by the extent and scope of these new projects currently underway in Oman's striving to develop its oil and gas sector. The Sultanate has big plans for increasing production, diversification, and infrastructure, ensuring it is a viable and long-term energy player.
