Marafiq Successfully Concludes Duqm Economic Forum 2025
Marafiq’s participation as the Energy Sector Sponsor at the 2nd edition of the Duqm Economic Forum 2025 successfully underscored its pivotal role as the “backbone of power and water” essential for driving industrial growth and sustainable development within the Special Economic Zone at Duqm (SEZAD). Marafiq’s engagement highlighted the significant progress in transforming Duqm into a resilient industrial hub, with its centralized utilities providing the foundational infrastructure necessary to support the zone’s committed investments. By showcasing their comprehensive utility solutions, Marafiq reinforced its commitment to enabling new opportunities and ensuring the long-term operational success of all industrial and commercial ventures in Duqm.
Furthermore, Marafiq used the forum as a platform to solidify its commitment to innovation and local talent development, exemplified by the signing of a strategic partnership agreement with the German University of Technology in Oman (GUtech). This collaboration is set to foster research and development in areas critical to Duqm’s future, including the application of cutting-edge technologies like 3D printing for a social complex in Al Duqm. These initiatives align directly with Oman’s national vision to diversify its economy and position Duqm as a global hub for sustainable industries, demonstrating Marafiq’s dedication not just to providing essential services, but to actively shaping the future technological and human capital landscape of the Special Economic Zone.
