General Census of Populations, Housing & Establishment 2010 Selected Data and Indicators From the Results of General Populations, Housing and Establishments Censuses ) 2010 -2003 -1993( Selected Data and Indicators From the Results of General Populations, Housing and Establishments Censuses (2010 - 2003 - 1993) His Majesty Sultan Qaboos Bin Said Foreword His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said, may Allah preserve Him, graciously issued the Royal Decree number (84/2007) calling for the conduct of the General Housing, Population and Establishments Census for the year 2010. The census was carried out with the assistance and cooperation of the various governmental institutions and the cooperation of the people, Omani and Expatriates. This publication contains the Selected Indicators and Information from the Results of the Censuses 1993, 2003 and 2010. It shall be followed by other publications at various Administrative divisions of the Sultanate. Efforts of thousands of those who contributed to census administrative and field work had culminated in the content of this publication. We seize this opportunity to express our appreciation and gratitude to all Omani and Expatriate people who cooperated with the census enumerators in providing the requested information fully and accurately. We also wish to express our appreciation and gratitude to Governmental civic, military and security institutions for their full support to the census a matter that had contributed to the success of this important national undertaking. Likewise, we wish to recognize the faithful efforts exerted by all census administration and field staff in all locations and functional levels.

Al Alama Centre
ALAL AMANAALAMAALAMA CENTRECENTRECENTRE MUSCAT,MUSCAT, SULTANATESULTANATE OFOF OMANOMAN HH AA NN DD BB OO OO KK 0 OUR HISTORY – A UNIQUE LEGACY The name “Al Amana” is Arabic for “bearing trust,” which captures the spirit and legacy of over 115 years of service in Oman. The Centre is the child of the Gulf-wide mission of the Reformed Church in America that began in Oman in 1893. The mission‟s first efforts were in educational work by establishing a school in 1896 that eventually became a coeducational student body of 160 students. The school was closed in 1987 after ninety years of service to the community. The mission was active in many other endeavors, which included beginning a general hospital (the first in Oman), a maternity hospital, a unit for contagious diseases, and a bookshop. With the growth of these initiatives, by the 1950‟s the mission was the largest employer in the private sector in Oman. In the 1970‟s the hospitals were incorporated in the Ministry of Health, and the mission staff worked for the government to assist in the development of its healthcare infrastructure. The mission also established centers for Christian worship in Muscat and Muttrah. It is out of these centers that the contemporary church presence for the expatriate community Oman has grown, now occupying four campuses donated by His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said. After Oman discovered oil, having a newfound wealth with which to modernize, the mission's activities were either concluded or grew into independent initiatives. However, the desire to serve the people of Oman continued.

Spatial Prediction of Coastal Flood- Susceptible Areas in Muscat Governorate Using an Entropy Weighted Method
Risk Analysis XII 121 SPATIAL PREDICTION OF COASTAL FLOOD- SUSCEPTIBLE AREAS IN MUSCAT GOVERNORATE USING AN ENTROPY WEIGHTED METHOD HANAN Y. AL-HINAI & RIFAAT ABDALLA Earth Sciences Department, College of Science, Sultan Qaboos University, Sultanate of Oman ABSTRACT Flooding is one of the most commonly occurring natural hazards worldwide. Mapping and evaluation of potential flood hazards are vital parts of flood risk assessment and mitigation. This study focuses on predicting the coastal flood susceptibility area in Muscat Governorate, Sultanate of Oman. First, it is assumed that the occurrence of a hazard can be determined based on the indicators influencing it. Thus, four indicators were selected and classified into five classes based on their contribution to flood hazard probability; these include ground elevation, slope degree, soil hydrologic group, and distance from the coast. Then, the entropy weighted method was applied to calculate the weights of given indicators in influencing flood hazards. The results were finally aggregated into ArcGIS software and the produced maps were reclassified into five coastal flood susceptibility zones. The results show that the soil indicator has the highest rate of weight in Wilayats Bawshar, Muttrah, Muscat and Qurayyat. While the elevation indicator has the highest rate of flood hazard in Wilayat AlSeeb. The weight results were used then for calculation of flood hazard index which was then classified into five classes of flood hazard susceptibility zones. The results of this work will be very useful in pursuing work on assessing the potential of multiple hazard risk interactions. It is essential to include certain indicators such as land use and land cover in future work, as they play a major role in water infiltration and runoff behaviour.

Degree awarded September 2017 ii © 2017 Nicole Kessell iii THESIS ABSTRACT Nicole Kessell Master of Arts Department of International Studies September 2017 Title: Migration, Identity, and the Spatiality of Social Interaction in Muscat, Sultanate of Oman Utilizing Henri Lefebvre’s theory of the production of space as a framework for exploration, this research is concerned with the social and cultural impacts of modernization and international migration to Muscat, Oman focusing on the production of space and its role in the modification and (re)construction of culture and identity in the everyday. While the Omani state is promoting a unifying national identity, Muscat residents are reconstructing and renegotiating culture and identity in the capital city. Individuals are adapting and conforming to, mediating, and contesting both the state’s identity project as well as to the equally, if not more, influential social control that is the culture of gossip and reputation.

PREFACE This Distribution System Capability Statement (DSCS) is provided by Muscat Electricity Distribution Company (MEDC) to fulfil its regulatory obligations under Condition number 32 of the MEDC Distribution and Supply Licence as well as the Oman Distribution Planning Code 4.4. MEDC supplies electricity to customers throughout the Muscat Governate as the owner and operator of its electricity distribution system originating from the 33kV busbars of the Oman Electricity Transmission Company (OETC) 132/33kV grid substations down to the final customer’s point of connection; which incorporates 33kV, 11kV and Low Voltage (LV) distribution system voltage levels and associated assets. The aim of this DSCS is to provide an up-to-date distribution system capability for the next three years (2021-2023) along with data to enable customers in identifying parts of the system; which offer opportunities for future connections or upgrading of existing connections to the MEDC system and where constraints currently exist or potentially could exist in future. In addition to the required data made available annually as part of DSCS; MEDC additionally has provided improved detailed system connectivity and additional technical data of assets, impact analysis of Cost Reflective Tariff (CRT) on MEDC customers and an overview of the photovoltaic (PV) system penetration in the MEDC distribution system which is gaining momentum in our licenced area as well. These additions are expected to provide customers and other stakeholders with a transparent understanding of MEDC distribution system and operational overview, sufficient technical parameters to undertake initial system capabilities assessment and the overall distribution system development. Additionally, this year the world including MEDC customers and hence its network have experienced a force-majure event triggered due to the COVID-19 pandemic which has temporarily but significantly impacted electricity demand including future growth in the MEDC licenced area.
