Turning Wind into Green Power for Oman’s Oil & Gas Sector
A pivotal moment for energy transition in the Middle East! Goldwind has successfully completed the hoisting of the first wind turbine at the Riyah 2 project in southern Oman — a major construction milestone for Oman’s largest wind power initiative.
⭐ Why this matters: This isn't just another wind farm. It is a strategic collaboration between Goldwind, OQ Alternative Energy (OQAE), and TotalEnergies designed to decarbonize the operations of Petroleum Development Oman (PDO). Once operational, the wind farm — located in the high-wind regions of Dhofar and Al Wusta — will supply clean electricity to PDO, supporting the decarbonization of its traditional oil and gas operations and contributing to Oman’s Vision 2040 and net-zero goals. Strategically sited to maximize wind resources, the project is expected to reduce CO₂ emissions by approximately 740,000 tons annually.
We are building green infrastructure to power traditional industries, proving that renewables are the key to a low-carbon future. Meeting the rigorous safety and technical standards of the oil & gas industry, our GWH-182/6.5MW turbines are rising to the challenge in Salalah.
Congratulations to the entire project team and our partners OQAE, TotalEnergies, and PowerChina Huadong Engineering for overcoming the challenges to reach this construction milestone. Together, we are fueling Oman’s journey toward Net-Zero. 🌍
