Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) is the largest oil and gas producer in the Sultanate of Oman and is majority state-owned. In April 2024 its board named Dr Aflah bin Said Al Hadhrami as Managing Director from 1 June 2024, the first Omani national in the role, succeeding Steve Phimister, as part of a restructuring into a leadership team of five Executive Directors and the Managing Director. The Minister of Energy and Minerals, Eng Salim Al Aufi, chairs its board.
