In 2022, the Port of Salalah has brought sixteen new eco-eff¬icient, rubber-tyred gantry cranes (RTG’s) from ZPMC into operation and three new mobile harbour cranes from Liebherr. This has enabled the port to expand operations, enhance container and general cargo handling and reduce the terminal’s environmental impact.
The contract with ZPMC and Liebherr is a part of a wider investment in expanding the Port’s future capacity to ensuring the terminal is equipped with the latest technology and equipment to support local and international business customers.
This agreement aligns with Oman’s 2040 Vision, to elevate infrastructure as a key economic instrument to further grow the transportation and logistics sector.
Environmental benefits
Reducing fuel burn by 20%, the new RTGs are an important step in the terminal’s long-term plan to have zero-carbon emissions. They are fitted with the latest Siemens technology and are capable of lifting 41-tons, with six wide stacking plus truck lanes.
They can be fully monitored remotely and are integrated with the asset digitization system currently being installed in the terminal to monitor production and eff¬iciency. In addition, they have laser anti-collision systems to provide protection to machinery and pedestrians.
“Innovation and improvement are at the heart of our Port-centric solutions. Our investment in the latest RTG’s and mobile harbour cranes demonstrates our long-term commitment to optimise operational eff¬iciencies and cargo handling services while accommodating existing and new trade,” said Mark Hardiman, CEO.
World-leading efficiency
In the latest Container Port Performance Index (CPPI 2020) produced by the Transport Global Practice of the World Bank, the Port achieved world class efficiency. ranked 6th amongst 351 ports globally. “The new equipment will help us to continue expanding our capabilities, capacity, eff¬iciencies and support increased demand,” concludes Hardiman.
The Port of Salalah Container Terminal has a 2.4 km container berth quay and seven berths of up to 18m draft. Its infrastructure can handle the world's largest container vessels, as well as bulk cargo, bunkering and warehousing. The terminal has an annual capacity of 5 million TEU and is viewed as the region's best located port for access the Middle East, Indian Subcontinent and East Africa.
APM Terminals signed a 30-year concession agreement with the government of Oman to build and manage this world-class container facility until 2028. APM Terminals holds a 30% stake in the Port operating company Salalah Port Services. Other shareholders include the government (20%), government pension funds (23%), and others (27%).
Since then, the Port has made significant strides towards achieving world-class operational standards. Around US$800 million has been invested in infrastructure.

DDiamond resistance technology of heat exhaustion. Is not simple. Accurate transmissions. Perpetual motion efficiency.
Varma designed ultra modern and high efficiency turbines which can use gas, steam or fuels as feed to produce electricity or mechanical work for wide range of usages and applications in industries or at work sites.
Varma turbine engines can be used in all types of vehicles. These turbines can also be used in aircraft, ships, battle tanks, dredgers, mining equipment, earth moving machines etc,
Salient features of Varma Turbines.
1. Varma turbines are simple in design, easy to manufacture, easy to operate and maintain.
2. Varma turbines are less expensive.
3. Varma turbines have a great power to weight ratio, compared to present turbines.
4. Varma turbines will have low maintenance costs.
5. Varma turbines will have 95% efficiency, the highest compared to any present turbines.
6. Varma turbine parts will be less prone to rust, erosion, wear and tear.
7. Varma turbines will arrest all leakages of steam, gas and water in respective turbines.
8. Varma water turbines can convert the whole potential energy in every drop of water, acquired by virtue of its position, into kinetic energy and further into electricity
9. Varma turbines will have no blades, either fixed or rotary, the complex structures of present turbines.
10. Varma turbines have common design to use gas, steam or water’s potential energy as feed to generate electricity or mechanical work.
11. Varma turbines will have low noise and no vibrations because the balance of the rotating sphere and shaft is perfect.
12. The base of the turbine will be more compared to its steam intake chambers. It gives more stability to turbine.
13. Varma turbine will face less thermal and corrosion fatigue, less stress, cracking and misalignment.
Basic conceptual design of Varma Turbines - There are four types of varma turbines
1. Varma steam turbines
2. Varma gas turbines
3. Varma water turbines
4. Varma Turbine engines.

A little bit of snow doesn't stop the Swiss running their trains up the mountain in Zermatt. Although to be fair, they are purpose designed and built to handle it.
This has the look of a "toy town" or minature landscape. The wind had flattened all the new snow into a smoth velvety appearance from a distance.
