The Oman Tourism Development Company (Omran) has awarded two major consultancy contracts for the first phase of its ambitious $1.3 billion Mina Al Sultan Qaboos Waterfront project in Muscat, according to a post on the company’s website.

The mega waterfront project will be developed in over four separate phases according to top officials of Omran at a recent launch ceremony of the project. Phase one of the integrated mixed-use waterfront destination, set to be developed at a cost of $390 million, will transform the current commercial Port Sultan Qaboos area into a major tourism-based development, spanning a 64-hectare area, when completed by 2020, the report continued.
