The Oman LNG plant is located at Sur on the East Coast of Oman. Sur is a fishermen’s town on the east coast of Oman.

Consequently, Oman LNG has a Zero Discharge policy to sea and the company strives to minimise atmospheric emissions to the lowest practical level.
Oman LNG aims at achieving and maintaining world class record in its environmental performance.
Oman LNG is committed to conducting environmental impact studies for any project it initiates in order to ensure that such projects do not have an impact on the local environment including the flora and fauna in the sea and around the plant. In its daily operation, seawater is used as part of the cooling process before being returned to sea.
The temperature change in the seawater when it is returned may be a few degrees different, but corals are also a sensitive to changes in water temperature. Therefore, the cooling water outlet has a special diffuser designed to reduce the chances of raising seawater temperatures. In addition, the power facilities at the plant use special burners to reduce NOX emissions.
Waste management is also another important area for the protection of the environment.
The plant has it own sewage treatment unit, which recycles waste water once it has been treated. Waste that could be harmful, such as waste oil, is carefully stored on site in special areas for collection by specialised disposal experts.
Any equipment that may produce a loud noise is enclosed in special noise hoods to reduce its sound. The Company is also committed to helping preserve Oman’s unique heritage. Before the first earth was turned at the construction site an archaeological survey was undertaken.
This identified several historical sites, some more than 200 years old. While these historical sites are outside the area where the plant was built, Oman LNG fenced them off and clearly marked the sites to ensure their future protection.
Total emissions to air from the gas turbine and furnace stacks and the flare have been calculated and measured emissions have remained within the legal limits set by the Ministry of Regional Municipalities, Environment and Water Resources (MRME).
Oman LNG is committed to achieving the highest environmental standards by controlling the environmental impacts of its daily business activities, products and services consistent with environmental policy and objectives.
The Sultanate of Oman has stringent rules to protect and conserve the environment, and Oman LNG aims to meet or exceed the Government’s requirements.
The responsibilities for conserving the environment rest with all who work for, or on behalf of the company. 
They should manage Environmental Management System systematically by ensuring compliance with the Law and conforming to ISO 14001 standards, and seek to achieve continual improvement.
Oman LNG continually defines environmental aspects associated with the products, services, new development or new modified activities within its operations. These aspects are reviewed and evaluated regularly.
Oman LNG has established a Five Year Environmental Management Programme to ensure that high risks are systematically managed and addressed taking into account specific measurable objectives and targets including timescales, necessary resources and assigned responsibility parties for implementing the programme.
To ensure the effectiveness and efficiency of the system implementation, the company continually assesses the system against the requirements of ISO 14001 standard by conducting process audit internally and surveillance audit annually by a third party.
