Mina al Fahal
From Free net encyclopedia
Mina al Fahal is a coastal area in the northeast of Oman, near to the country's capital, Muscat. It was renamed from Saih al Maleh as the petroleum processing plant was developed. It is a key area for the country's petroleum operations. Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) is based at Mina al Fahal, and the Oman Refinery Company (ORC) has an 85,000 b/d oil refinery located here. Crude oil and refinery products are loaded on to tankers off Mina Al Fahal by subsea pipeline.
