National Gas Company plans to invest approximately $100 million in a small-scale LNG plant in Oman to serve energy needs of oil and gas rigs. The project aims to convert diesel generators to dual-fuel using LNG, reducing CO₂ emissions by 30% and operating costs by 15%.

An MoU with Abraj Energy Services supports this initiative. Construction is expected to start in Q1 2026, pending pricing approval from Integrated Gas Company. The mini-LNG plant will enable domestic LNG supply for the first time in Oman, facilitating transport to various users including factories and power plants.
