In 2014, Oman launched a tender for a 32 inch, 85 km pipeline from the gas compressor station at Nimr to the existing Saih Rawl-Salalah Gas Pipeline at Marmul, with the aim of increasing gas supplies to Salalah.[1]

In 2015, Egypt's Petrojet was awarded the engineering, procurement and construction contract for Oman's Salalah Gas Loop Line.[1]

Construction began in 2016, and the project was complete in 2017.[3]
