The official LinkedIn Page for Oman Energy Association (OPAL).


Oman Energy Association (OPAL) is a prominent business society in the Sultanate of Oman. An NGO and a non-profit organization focusing on the Energy & Minerals sector. The organization was originally formed in 1998 when like-minded companies embarked on a common desire to promote industry standards and create a forum to resolve common problems, and share best practices. Initially known as the Oil Industry Training Board (OITB), it was later amalgamated with Oman Oil & Gas Contractor Forum to form the Oman Petroleum Alliance (OPAL). The industry’s business society was officially registered on the 27th of October 2001, under the regulations governing the formation of societies at the Ministry of Social Development.

OPAL aims to strengthen its services through a single platform for agreeing and promoting work standards to increase competencies and professionalism. The long-term target of OPAL is to have the Oman’s Energy Industry in a world class level, internationally competitive and as a figurehead in the sustainable management of Hydrocarbons and Renewable energy.
