OQ REFINERIES L.L.C.

OQ Refineries & Petroleum Industries Company operates Oman's two original refineries, Mina Al Fahal (106,000 bpd) near Muscat and Sohar (198,000 bpd) on the Batinah coast, and is the Omani shareholder in the Duqm Refinery joint venture with Kuwait Petroleum, a 230,000-bpd integrated complex that came on-stream through 2024. The company sits inside OQ Group, Oman's state-owned integrated energy company consolidated from ORPIC, OOCEP, Oxy Oman, Salalah Methanol and other government holdings. Its refineries supply domestic retail fuel, jet fuel to Muscat and Salalah airports, LPG, bunker fuel at Sohar Port, and feedstock into downstream petrochemicals (OQ Polymers, OQ Aromatics, Salalah Methanol). Workforce across the three sites exceeds 3,000 direct staff, expanding sharply during major turnarounds when 200+ subcontractor engineers, inspectors, and EPC foremen rotate through each plant for weeks at a time. Large refinery turnarounds are exactly where Cardify earns its keep: field engineers arrive from Italy, India, Korea and Saudi Arabia with fresh paper cards that are lost inside the first 8-hour shift on a 45°C unit. A Cardify digital card with a QR code lets an OQ reliability engineer share her full vCard, LinkedIn, and SAP login alias with a visiting FEED consultant in under four seconds, no reprint cycle, no scattered business cards in the lab drawer. Bilingual EN/AR rendering handles ministerial inspectors from the Ministry of Energy and Minerals who prefer Arabic, while English remains default for the international technical community circulating at OGWA and the EOR Conference. Teams at OQ Refineries can stand up a company-branded template in minutes, issue cards to new graduate engineers on day one, and bulk-order printed QR cards from a local BHD print partner when hard copies are still required for government meetings. Start free on Cardify, ideal for a 3,000-person organisation juggling shift handovers, EPC subcontractors, ministry inspectors and cross-border JV partners.
