The Port of Duqm phenomenal development in a short span of time
In 2007, at the time when the first dredging ship arrived in Duqm, there were only some restaurants, in the proximity.

It’s been a mark of achievement as there is a drastic development at Duqm from being an inactive coastal hamlet to a fast-growing industrial area within a span of eight years.

An alliance between the Omani Government and the Consortium Antwerp Port (CAP) - The Port of Duqm Company, has been the major factor in changing this.

As the dredging ship deepened the sea bed, experts started the making of the basin and quay walls of an ambitious sea port project that focused to paves the way of economic development for Al Wusta Governorate.

In 2011 when the port invited the first ship, a numerous infrastructure development projects had already started taking place. In a short span of less than four years, the city has an airport of its own, three big hotels, and several high standard residential apartments, though the port is still awaiting for the second and third phases of development.

The port is playing a key role in Middle East’s maritime landscape which is rapidly changing, grateful to its strategic geopolitical location.

Captain Wim Aertbelien, Harbour Master and Chief Pilot, Port of Duqm said,
“We have been creating business with the infrastructure available. Currently, we manage more with project oriented cargo because the Ministry of Oil and Gas has titled the port as the entry point for heavy equipment for the development and maintenance of oil fields in the Sultanate”.

Bhatt got an idea when he got a call from coast guard that he would be leading a large rescue operations.
However, at the time of his arrival at the coordinates, there were no other ships present, no coast guard and nothing big enough to accommodate so many passengers. There was only a small fishing boat,in the vicinity.
Some english speaking people aboard the boat, he told that the small fishing boat was the one that called for help. The passengers were facing water scarcity and there was not much food and above that there were pregnant women on board.
The ship was cramped up with many migrants, there was hardly any inch of the vessel left without them.
