SOHAR Port and Freezone has become SEA-LNG's first Middle Eastern port member. Sohar has joined SEA-LNG to promote its investment in liquefied natural gas (LNG) bunkering facilities and the use of LNG as a marine fuel.
SEA-LNG is the leading multi-sector industry coalition, created to accelerate the widespread adoption of LNG. MARSA LNG, a venture comprised of TOTAL SA and OQ, is developing a LNG liquefaction plant and bunkering facility in SOHAR Port.
"This major LNG bunkering project will generate in-country value and job opportunities, and will support industry diversification efforts by promoting shipping activities in Oman," said Sohar Port CEO Mark Geilenkirchen.
"The establishment of this facility will make Sohar one of the key LNG bunkering facilities on the main shipping trade routes, alongside other strategic ports, many of whom are already SEA-LNG members, such as the port of Singapore. MARSA LNG will supply LNG sourced locally in the sultanate," he said.
