Our Journey

The origins of OQGN trace back to the turn of the century, when OQ Gas Networks SOAG was incorporated in 2000 as Oman Gas Company SAOC, a closed joint stock company, and was renamed from Oman Gas Company to OQ Gas Networks in 2020. OQGN is fully owned by OQ S.A.O.C., which is owned by the Oman Investment Authority.

Over the last two decades, we have successfully transformed the business from a small gas transport company into a critical infrastructure player which is trusted and respected across the country.
