Doosan Enerbility has announced that it signed an EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) contract to build a 1,700MW CCGT (Combined-Cycle Gas Turbine) power plant in Misfah, Oman. The contract is valued at approximately KRW 930 billion, and the company will carry out the project in consortium with China’s SEPCO-3, it is reported.
Doosan Enerbility announced on August 21 that it had signed an EPC contract with a consortium of project owners to build a gas-fired combined-cycle power plant in Misfah, located about 20 kilometers west of Muscat, the capital of Oman. The project owner is reported to be a consortium led by Qatar’s Nebras Power, together with a development and investment subsidiary of the UAE’s Etihad Water & Electricity, and Oman’s Bahwan Infrastructure Services. Doosan Enerbility formed a consortium with SEPCO-3, a power plant construction specialist, to carry out the full engineering, procurement and construction process, and will directly manufacture and supply core equipment including the steam turbine and generator, it is reported. The gas turbines for the plant will be supplied by Siemens Energy, with six F-class gas turbines, six generators, and a 20-year long-term service agreement (LTSA) included in the arrangement, according to reports.
Doosan Enerbility is reported to have built up a track record in the Middle East and Asian gas power markets, starting with a peaking unit project in Qatar in February 2025, followed by the Rumah-1, Nairiyah-1 and PP12 projects in Saudi Arabia in March 2025, and the roughly KRW 900 billion Ohmon-4 project in Vietnam in June 2025. This Misfah project is reported to follow the earlier Duqm project as another consecutive win in Oman.
Implications for Korea’s Industry
A Doosan Enerbility official reportedly said that the company’s track record in Saudi Arabia and Qatar played a key role in winning this contract. Observers note the significance of a Korean power equipment company expanding its presence in the Middle East CCGT market as both the lead EPC contractor and supplier of core equipment.
The Misfah plant is targeted for completion in April 2029 and is expected to help stabilize Oman’s electricity supply once completed, it is reported. Oman’s state gas network operator, OQ Gas Networks, is set to supply 8.5 million cubic meters per day and 4.5 million cubic meters per day of natural gas to the Misfah and Duqm projects respectively, so progress on the related gas supply infrastructure is also worth monitoring.
