History

National Gas Company was set up with a vision to meet LP Gas consumption need in the region. During the late 1970’s, the need to set up a local bottling plant was prompted by the problems faced by the local gas dealers, who had to travel to Dubai and Abu Dhabi to collect cylinders.Moreover there were frequent shortages due to Omani dealers being given last priority. Our first Chairman, Mr. Mohd Abdul Rasool Al Jamali, a true visionary, was instrumental in setting up the National Gas Company.
