OMAN DATA CENTER MARKET - KEY HIGHLIGHTS
- Oman has about 11 operational colocation data centers. Most colocation data centers are being developed according to Tier III standards.
- The cost of building data centers in Oman is relatively high, averaging $8–$9 million per MW, higher than in several other small markets. The costs are likely to increase YoY due to factors such as increasing interest rates, inflation, and government policies.
- To attract greater foreign investment, international companies are increasingly collaborating to expand digital infrastructure in Oman, such as the partnership between Equinix and Omantel. In November 2024, the two partners officially launched the Salalah SN1 carrier-neutral data center, marking the second carrier-neutral facility of Oman and strengthening its global interconnection capabilities.
- Local operators in Oman are increasingly adopting captive solar solutions to reduce carbon intensity and stabilize long-term energy costs. For instance, Oman Data Park has initiated a phased on-site solar project (initial capacity of 1.4 MW) to directly power its facilities, lowering reliance on grid-based conventional energy. This scalable model can be replicated by other data center investors seeking sustainable operations and improved cost efficiency.
