Sohar Aluminium (SA) has decided to sponsor the Engineering and Manufacturing category of the Oman Web Awards. This is part of SA’s endeavour to be associated with excellence.
The Engineering and Manufacturing sector in Oman is a cornerstone of Oman’s 2020 vision to diversify its economy away from oil and gas dependency. By sponsoring this category SA believes it is contributing in its own way to help the diversification process.
SA’s website won the second prize in the 2010 edition of the OWA and hopes to see more glory in this year’s showpiece.
The CEO of Sohar Aluminium, Henk Pauw said: “The World-Wide Web has become an even tighter entity than it ever was before and organisations need to use it effectively to ensure their business reaches its customers. The Oman Web Awards encourages corporates to maintain a strong presence on the web and motivates developers by challenging them to innovate and deliver award-winning websites. We hope to see something new this year and expect an exciting contest on the cards.”
Sohar Aluminium was formed in September 2004 to undertake a landmark Greenfield aluminium smelter project in the Sultanate of Oman.
Jointly owned by Oman Oil Company, Abu Dhabi National Energy Company PJSC — TAQA and Rio Tinto Alcan, Sohar Aluminium reached full capacity on February 19, 2009. It currently produces 375,000 metric tonnes of aluminium per year.
