Oman Telecommunications Company (Omantel) is the first telecommunications company in Oman and is the primary provider of internet services in the country. Omantel acquired a 65% share in WorldCall Pakistan in April 2008.[2] The government of Oman owns a 70% share in Omantel.[3]
Omantel has established itself as a major international hub, with currently 10 submarine cables landing in Oman, e.g. TWA, EIG, PLAG, Falcon, EPEG, SMW-3, Mena, POI, OMRAN, GBI and BBG.
In 2015 it announced a project that will implement FTTH technology in the country.[4] The same year, it won an award for its human resources standard of quality.[5]
