Reiterating a national commitment to deliver 1,000 sites by Q1 of 2018, Ooredoo, the Sultanate’s data experience leader has successfully expanded its high-speed 4G network to more than 900 new locations, covering 90% of Oman’s population. The company is set to transform digital experiences by enabling customers to enjoy the internet even more, providing a high-speed system to deliver superior connectivity.  The new sites will give users the best possible interaction with what they call the Supernet.

Over the last month, more than 60 sites have been added in Muscat, 40 in Batinah and in Ad Dakhliyah and 25 sites in the Dhofar and Dhahirah regions, with the remainder extending to every governorate of the Sultanate. Ooredoo’s 4G network offers amazing speed and efficiency which will allow customers to stay connected wherever they go and enjoy a secure digital experience, for all of their internet needs.

Feras bin Abdallah Al Sheikh, Director of Consumer Sales at Ooredoo, said, “Part of achieving our goal to accelerate our expansion of high speed data was to improve our mobile network and give users the best possible experience, to enjoy 4G internet in many new places. Customers now have the advantage of superior, uninterrupted connectivity, especially for advanced tasks such as video chat and streaming, to provide a digital first user experience. We have invested many hours, manpower and finances to transform our data services as a way to enrich interactions on all devices”.

Ooredoo’s latest expansion efforts increased their reach in Dhofar, famous for its seasonal weather commonly known as “Khareef”, which transforms the area into lush greenery. Attracting many visitors during this time to escape the scorching heat and indulge in a refreshing setting, Ooredoo is ensuring that both residents and tourists will get to enjoy the new 4G network.
