First
Locally Designed, Manufactured Thermal Oxidizer in Oman Unveiled

Sohar,
8 Dec 2025 (ONA) — The first Thermal Oxidizer (TO) to be completely designed,
engineered, manufactured, and tested inside the Sultanate of Oman was unveiled
today. This step is a qualitative industrial achievement that reflects the
Sultanate of Oman’s growing capabilities in developing advanced technologies
and heavy equipment for regional projects.

The
device was manufactured for the Meliha Gas Processing Plant project affiliated
with Agiba Petroleum Company in the Arab Republic of Egypt, in cooperation with
SLB as the main contractor. Majees Industrial Services, through its brand
“FLAROMAN”, is handling the design, manufacturing, and production
operations.

This
achievement highlights the advanced competency of Omani engineers and
technicians, contributes to supporting the localization of modern technologies,
creating qualitative job opportunities, and enhancing the competitiveness of
Omani industries. This solidifies the Sultanate of Oman’s position as a regional
supplier of high-tech industrial solutions within and outside the GCC
countries. Furthermore, local manufacturing of such devices allows for reducing
project costs, accelerating execution timelines, and providing solutions
specifically designed for regional operating conditions.

The
Thermal Oxidizer is distinguished by several advanced technical specifications,
including a burner management system, the ability to operate with natural or
forced draft, and a processing capacity exceeding 9,000 kg/hour with a wide
turndown range. It also features a powerful burner that allows for an air flow
of nearly 55,000 cubic metres. The device stands over 22 meters tall and has a
design that ensures an operational lifespan of up to 20 years.
