New gas allocation to power sector ‘capped’ capped in Oman (Source: Oman Observer)  The Sultanate has decided to ‘cap’ new allocations of natural gas to the nation’s power sector in a move designed to prod the latter into exploring alternatives to gas, long the dominant fuel resource powering the country’s electricity generation sector.  The gas allocations to consumers such as power plants were typically underpinned by long long‐term term commitments extending over 15 15‐20 20 years — timeframes that present significant challenges in the face of growing domestic gas demand.  The cap on new gas allocations to the power sector is expected to remain in place for “some time”, stressing the need for the sector to also enhance efficiency in the utilization of the resource.  For its part, OPWP says it has secured commitments from the ministry for the fuel requirements of new power plants under various stages of development in Suhar, Ibri and Salalah.  However gas availability with regard to future plants is not assured, it warned in its 2016 Outlook Statement.

  8. MSM ‐ Market Watch Source: Bloomberg, GBCM Research Market Outlook – All set for Q2 2017 amid expectations of dividend reinvestment and earnings season… The GCC markets ended on a mixed note during Q1 2017 amid strong outperformance trend seen in Kuwait (Price Index gained 22% QTD) and Bahrain market (+11% QTD) after long time. While all other regional markets ended on a negative note. Omani equities had revealed a decline of 4% QTD amid the stocks getting adjusted fully to the dividends. dividends We would see few stocks like Omantel, Omantel Bank Sohar, HSBC Bank Oman to trade ex‐dividends today. We anticipate the local and the GCC equities to open in green for the first trading day of Q2 2017 and to take cues from stable global market sentiments and also the oil prices. We do expect the market to watch out keenly for the dividend reinvestment and also cues from the upcoming earnings season. Key concern to remain on low investor participation. On the technical perspective, MSM Index do see strong support closer to 5,510 points. GBCM Morning Briefing 8
