Oman Oil Marketing Company has started its fuel bunkering operations by barge at Port of Duqm as part of its drive to expand ship-to-ship services in the Sultanate’s maritime logistics hubs.

Developed in line with the most stringent international environment and marine safety fuel measures, the new services will play an integral role in the overall growth and development of the Port of Duqm and Special Economic Zone at Duqm (Sezad).
