Net profit of $1.7 billion also rose from $1.5 billion in 2023.
“With $6.5 billion in revenue, Oman LNG demonstrates financial resilience. Our strategic portfolio optimization balances long-term contracts (91 percent) with spot market agility,” CFO Khamis Al Hashmi said in the report.
Oman LNG currently operates three liquefaction trains at its site in Qalhat near Sur.
It also plans to expand the facility with a new train.
The new train will have a capacity of 3.8 mtpa, boosting Oman’s LNG production to 15.2 mtpa.
