Role in marine infrastructure

Oman's Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Water Resources sets fisheries policy, regulates resources and markets, and is formally responsible for establishing, developing and managing fishing ports. Public owner records connect the Ministry to Raysut, Masirah, Mahout, Quriyat, Daba, Bukha and Liwa, while a January 2026 portfolio update also records active breakwater and floating-pier work at Hasik and Hadbeen. Liwa demonstrates why the portfolio must be tracked by package: an operating harbour built under the Galfar contract, a recalled 2023 maintenance-dredging procurement, and a separate development-management-operation PPP that remained in the 2024 pipeline without a verified developer award.
