Oman’s upstream oil and gas sector is evaluating a target of zero emissions by 2050, with interim targets set by Oman including the deployment of renewable energy and the deepening of energy efficiency actions, which would enable Oman to slow GHG emission growth and reduce them by 7% in 2030. Additionally, the country’s National Energy Strategy set a target to derive 20% of electricity from renewables by 2027, with the current majority of electricity in Oman generated by burning crude oil and natural gas.
