Port of Salalah Work Featured in Energy Source Magazine

Mina’s Group partnership with the Defense Logistics Agency Energy and DLA Energy Middle East was featured in the Winter 2015 edition of Energy Source Magazine.

 

Mina Group is working on the construction of a large state-of-the-art marine petroleum terminal in Salalah, Oman for the U.S. Navy, capable of storing in excess of 1.4 million of barrels of fuel oil and aviation fuel, to support U.S. naval operations. 

Navy leaders identified the Port of Salalah in Oman as an area of interest that requires greater bulk fuel support from Defense Logistics Agency Energy and DLA Energy Middle East.

The article noted that “This project builds upon the long-standing relationship between Oman and the United States. Routine U.S. Navy ship visits to the Port of Salalah have supported counter-piracy opera- tions in the Arabian Sea, Gulf of Aden and the Gulf of Oman. Historically, support provided by the Port of Sa- lalah has greatly enhanced the operational capability of our forces engaged in regional contingency operations.”

The Port of Salalah is a world-class transshipment hub and is an attractive strategic location in the heart of the Indian Ocean Rim.
