Why Sur needs activated bleaching clay
LNG and fertiliser plants on the coast, plus a traditional dhow-building yard. Bleaching earth is consumed in every batch of refined edible oil, at roughly 0.5–2% of oil weight, so refineries order it on a fixed schedule.
Oman is diversifying from oil and gas into ports, logistics, mining and manufacturing, with free zones at Sohar, Salalah and Duqm. Muscat remains the main consumer and construction market.
