The tenders were floated by the Tender Board on June 13. The bid submission deadline is July 15. In March this year, Oman Investment Corporation (OIC) and the Saudi-based Mohammed Ali Al Swailem Group (MASCO) signed an agreement for developing a world-class fully-integrated economic city in Khazaen in Al Batinah Governorate. In the next 20 years, Khazaen Economic City is projected to draw many investments in industrial, logistics and commercial fields. It comprises a dry port besides residential, commercial and industrial areas. Strategically situated halfway between Muscat and Sohar Free Zone, Khazaen Economic City will be developed in several phases until it becomes an integrated city.
