Sultan of Oman Haitham bin Tariq is expected to arrive in Kuwait on Monday on an official visit where he will hold talks with Emir Sheikh Meshal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah.

This is the first visit by Sultan Haitham since he ascended the throne in January 2020.

Sheikh Mehal had carried out a state visit to Oman in February where he and Sultan Haitham presided over the opening of the Duqm Refinery and Petrochemical Industries Project in the Special Economic Zone at Duqm.

Kuwaiti Ambassador to Oman Dr. Mohammad Al-Hajri said on Sunday that relations between the two countries are witnessing “constant growth and development on all levels.”

Sheikh Meshal’s visit will push the bilateral relations between Kuwait and Oman toward more progress and prosperity, he was quoted as saying by Kuwait’s state news agency KUNA.

Oman's Ambassador to Kuwait Dr. Saleh Al-Kharousi highlighted the economic partnership between the countries, pointing to the inauguration of the Duqm project.

The project is a “great achievement and a source of pride for both countries,” he added.

“It is an embodiment of the deep-rooted relations between them,” he went on to say.

The project is the largest investment project in the oil sector between two Gulf countries.
