Oman’s Ministry of National Economy said on Tuesday it awarded construction contracts worth OR598m ($1.55bn).
The new projects include civil engineering work at Muscat International Airport, road construction as part of the Al Duqm Master Plan and the first phase of construction of Sohar Airport, the ministry said on its website.
The statement did not say which companies were awarded the projects.
Oman plans to diversify its economy away from oil income dependency, which makes up about 75 percent of state revenue, and is pursuing a number of large-scale infrastructure projects. (Reuters)
