Key Market Issues
- Foreign investors may be deterred from entering the Omani defense market because of a scarcity of skilled labor, induced by the lack of industrial capabilities within the country. Although the government is focusing on making amendments, the unemployment rate has increased in recent years resulting in internal conflicts, which have added to the foreign companies' woes.
- Historically, companies based in the UK and the US have dominated the Omani defense market owing to their strategic and military relations with it. Oman receives military and financial help from the US in return of use of its military bases by the American troops. Apart from these two countries, Oman maintains strong defense ties with France and procured substantial equipment during the review period. Oman's close relationship with the UK, the US and France is set to continue in the forecast period as a result of its dependence on their companies for the maintenance and life support of its equipment and weapons. As long as these relationships remain constant, suppliers from these three countries are set to dominate the Omani defense market, intensifying the rivalry in the market.
Key Highlights
- Over the last decade, the Middle East has witnessed a gradual decline in its overall security, owing to a rise in extremism, sectarian violence, and insurgency. This, coupled with an increase in the countries' purchasing power, has led to an arms race in the region. Substantial weapons deals signed during the last couple of years and a huge potential for further procurement has made arms suppliers take notice of the opportunities available in the region. Oman's neighbors, such as Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Bahrain, are focusing heavily on the procurement of advanced weapons to counter nuclear powered Iran. Oman maintains strong diplomatic relationships with both the US and Iran, and faces reduced threat levels from both internal and external factors. However, despite its current neutral stance, the country may be forced to join its neighbors in coalition against Iran. This has propelled Oman to invest in building its defense capabilities and join the ongoing arms race in the region in the last two years. The country's military modernization efforts are also aimed at increasing its visibility in the defense arena and becoming the substantial contributor in the Gulf Cooperation Committee (GCC).
- Oman has substantial oil reserves, and oil exports are the primary contributor to its economy. The country's offshore oil exploration infrastructure is threatened by various militant groups and Al-Qaeda. Oman employs the services of the National Guard, a semiautonomous body, which has guard duties on the border and at oil fields, utilities, and other strategic locations. In addition, its Navy started procuring patrol vessels and frigates for the protection of its maritime oil trade routes. Oman is expected to continue to invest in the protection of its oil industry, which will create market opportunities for technologies catering to the identification and access control, surveillance, perimeter protection, information technology security, and command, control, communications and intelligence (C3I) markets.
- The lack of a well-established infrastructure to produce defense equipment domestically has made Oman rely on imports from foreign companies. During the review period, the country's defense imports peaked in 2012 after sharp drop during 2010-2011. Aircraft dominated the imports during this period, with the US and France being the preferred sources. Major contracts signed during 2011-2012 will drive the country's imports over the forecast period, which is expected to see substantial growth.
