What We Do

Our Products

As a regional leader in base chemical production, OQBI produces 1.8 million tons per annum (Mtpa) of methanol, ammonia and LPG products, meeting global demand.
Our three advanced plants transform Oman’s natural gas into essential products for cooking, heating, transport, manufacturing and multiple other uses. Serving over 15 countries across three continents, we drive economies and empower communities by leveraging Oman’s integrated value chain to deliver top-quality solutions that touch millions of lives worldwide.

Production plants

OQBI’s three production plants are located in the Salalah Free Zone (SFZ), which provides corporate tax exemption, and receive feedstock under long-term contracts with the Integrated Gas Company (IGC), an entity owned by the Omani Ministry of Finance, through a pipeline network operated by OQ Gas Networks, which is part of the OQ Group.

Exports

100% of methanol and ammonia production and 87% of LPG products production are exported outside of Oman via OQ Trading (OQ Group’s global trading business).

LPG

OQBI is a key player in Oman’s LPG industry, extracting and refining propane and butane from the country’s oil and gas resources.
