Over the last few years, Oman has been the front runner in implementing key policies nationwide in initiating and implementing important changes in their waste management strategy. In order to facilitate the Sultanate’s vision, Fleming Gulf is organising the 3rd International Conference for Waste Management Oman with the support of Muscat Municipality.

Said Khalaf Al Abri from Oman Environmental Services Holding Company ‘Be’ah’ is to highlight the key strategic development plan for Waste Management in Oman. Al Abri will speak on the projects in the pipeline to help achieve Oman’s waste initiative.
