Oman seeks master plan designer for green industrial park
Oman is reportedly seeking consultants to build the master plan for a green industrial park at the Special Economic Zone at Duqm on the southeastern coast of the Arabian Sea.
The green park will be developed by the state-run Public Authority for Special Economic Zones and Free Zones (Opaz), the Oman Observer reported.
It will be anchored by a green metal production zone; a green manufacturing zone focusing on metals and hydrogen; and a silica-based industrial cluster.
The consultant will undertake commercial and feasibility studies, frame investment plans, develop regulations and design a detailed master plan with advanced engineering designs, the report said.
The last date for bid submission is July 14. No financial details on the park were given.
This month, Opaz signed 10 agreements and memoranda of understanding, drawing investments worth nearly OMR3 billion ($7.8 billion) to establish new projects within its Duqm special economic zone.
Future Fund Oman has already announced investments totalling OMR570 million across several vital sectors in the sultanate.
The Gulf state has also broken ground on a $4.2 billion agricultural city in the north of the country as part of a wider food security strategy.
