OP successfully concluded its participation in the National Oil Spill Response Exercise of Oman, Nawras 2023, which took place in Sohar. The exercise was jointly organized by the Environment Authority supported by MEMAC, and SOHAR Port and Freezone.

Various Emergency Response Teams from OP expertly executed the main operational phases of the exercise at sea and in port, in addition to protecting the water intake of the area’s major desalination plant.

Our experts were key planners at the Incident Command Center and led On-Scene Command at the Forward Command Post for response operations in the port area. They also played major roles as main panel members in the closing session, press conference, and post-exercise debriefing.

This exercise demonstrates the unwavering commitment of all participating agencies and organizations to environmental protection, emergency preparedness, and the ongoing enhancement of their contingency plans and emergency response capabilities.

Oman Petro Environmental Services Company (OP), and Oil Spill Response Ltd (OSRL) are pleased to announce the signing of a Mutual Support Agreement (MSA) in Oil Spill Preparation and Response. The agreement was signed in Muscat on 20th November 2023.

This agreement will facilitate closer  cooperation between OSRL, as a well-established spill preparedness and response industry co-operative, and OP, as the leading spill response service provider in Oman, with an expanding presence in the GCC region.

This collaboration will offer our members more efficient and effective response capabilities, for our members, fostering seamless integration across all three tiers of response.

More importantly, this agreement comes as an important step for ensuring that Oman can rely on our collective efforts. Through these efforts, we aim to achieve a level of preparedness and response that matches the evolving and escalating risks associated with Oman’s expanding role as a key player in the logistics sector and the rapid developments in the Omani energy sector.
