India and Oman have signed a pact that envisages the use of the strategically located Duqm port and dry dock for maintenance of Indian military vessels and logistical support.
BENEFITS FOR INDIA: After securing access to Iran’s Chabahar port, India was eyeing for a role at Oman’s strategically located Duqm port to enable India in expanding its economic presence in the hydrocarbon-rich West Asia.
1.Countering China: This initiative is a part of India’s maritime strategy to counter Chinese influence and activities in the Indian Ocean region. 2.Stronger defense ties:Such move will provide a boost to defense ties between Oman and India. Oman is India's oldest defense partner in West Asia and an ally in its anti-piracy campaign. India had supplied rifles to Oman, which in turn had sent support for India's fleet of Hawk aircraft. 3.Maritime security: Maritime security remains the main concern for most of the countries and the cooperation between the two sides will enhance maritime security in the Gulf and Indian Ocean region. 4.Expansion of trade: Both sides underlined the economic transformation of India and Oman and emphasized the importance of trade in economic development and to take the strategic engagement forward. It will substantially increase the flow of bilateral investment and trade.
Access to Port of Duqm is a great development due to its strategic location. With this, India will not only expand its footprints in the Indian Ocean but also boost the defense ties between India and Oman. Both sides have expressed satisfaction over the current state of relations and agreed to further expand their cooperation to new areas of mutual interest including space, energy security, cybersecurity, renewable energy and food security that will further boost the strategic partnership.
