Total Energies Expands in Oman’s Energy Sector: What It Means for Investors and Entrepreneurs
MUSCAT, MARCH 28 — French global energy company TotalEnergies has reported a significant increase in hydrocarbon production from its upstream operations in Oman for the year 2025.
Total production reached approximately 69,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d) in 2025, up from about 65,000 boe/d in 2024. This figure, reflecting the company’s equity share, includes 31,000 boe/d of liquids (comprising crude oil, condensates, and natural gas liquids) and 208 million cubic feet per day (Mcf/d) of natural gas.
These production details appear in TotalEnergies’ Universal Registration Document 2025, which includes the Annual Financial Report for 2025 and was submitted to the French Financial Markets Authority on March 27, 2026.
The company’s oil and gas output derives from its 4% stake in Block 6 and an indirect 25.55% interest in onshore gas Block 10, through its 80% ownership of Marsa LNG LLC, which holds 33.19% of Block 10. Located in the Greater Barik area, Block 10 commenced production in January 2023. Gas from this block will supply a low-carbon LNG bunkering facility with a capacity of 1 million tonnes per year, scheduled to begin operations in March 2028. The final investment decision for this project was announced in April 2024.
Regarding Block 11, where TotalEnergies held a 22.5% interest, the company noted that following a 3D seismic survey in 2022, five successful appraisal wells were drilled between 2023 and 2025. The license was voluntarily relinquished in March 2025 after the initial Exploration and Production Sharing Agreement (EPSA) phase, in agreement with partners.
On the midstream side, TotalEnergies participates in LNG production through stakes in Oman LNG (5.54%) and Qalhat LNG (2.04%, via Oman LNG), with a combined liquefaction capacity of 11.4 million tonnes per year. In November 2023, TotalEnergies secured agreements to extend these holdings beyond 2024: for 10 years for Oman LNG (Trains 1 and 2) and 5 years for Qalhat LNG (Train 3). These extensions include investments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions at these facilities.
Additionally, the company purchases long-term LNG volumes, often sourced from liquefaction projects in which it holds an interest. New LNG supply includes an ongoing arrangement with Oman LNG to lift 0.8 million tonnes per year for 10 years starting in 2025.
TotalEnergies is also a key partner in establishing the Middle East’s first LNG bunkering hub under the Marsa LNG joint venture, alongside majority Omani state-owned OQ Exploration & Production (OQEP). Located at Sohar Port, this facility, powered by carbon-free electricity, aims to limit the carbon footprint of LNG production to under 3 kg CO₂ equivalent per boe.
Beyond hydrocarbons, TotalEnergies is advancing renewable energy projects in Oman, developing 300 MW of renewable capacity in partnership with OQ Alternative Energy (OQAE), part of the OQ Group. The generated electricity will be supplied to Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) under power purchase agreements (PPAs).
