Saudi Minister of Industry and Mineral Resources Bandar bin Ibrahim Alkhorayef has visited the Tanger Med Port Center in Morocco as part of efforts to enhance ties between the Kingdom and Morocco.

During the visit, Alkhorayef was briefed on the stages of container processing, as the port constitutes an important industrial and logistical platform for more than 1,200 companies in various activities, including cars, aircraft, and textiles, and handles about 9 million containers annually.

Alkhorayef toured the facility and saw the logistics services that facilitate international trade, given the port's strategic location.

The minister was accompanied by the Deputy Minister of Industry and Mineral Resources for Mining Affairs, Eng. Khalid bin Saleh Al-Mudaifer, and the Saudi Ambassador to Morocco, Dr. Sami bin Abdullah Al-Saleh.

Oman LNG on Tuesday announced the successful loading of its first liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargo to Shell under its new long-term agreements, marking a significant milestone in the company’s strategy to expand its global market reach and reinforce Oman’s position as a leading LNG supplier.
According to Oman News Agency, the ceremonial event took place at Oman LNG’s state-of-the-art facility in Sur, under the auspices of Salim al Aufi, Minister of Energy and Minerals, alongside senior officials from Oman LNG and Shell.
Aufi, in his remarks, emphasized the importance of this milestone, saying, “Today’s shipment is not merely a delivery but a testament to Oman’s commitment to energy security, global collaboration, and sustainable economic growth. It also reflects the strong partnership between Oman LNG and Shell, built on mutual trust and a shared vision.”

Shell, as the largest offtaker under these new agreements, plays a pivotal role in Oman LNG’s strategic plans for sustained growth and market expansion.

Oman LNG’s CEO, Hamad al Naamany, highlighted the significance of this shipment, saying, “We are embarking on a 10-year concession extension with market leaders in LNG and energy. Our growth is aligned with Oman’s vision and adapted to the evolving global energy market demands. Our partnership with Shell continues to thrive, contributing to Oman’s economic diversification goals.”
