(MENAFN) Oman’s statistics center stated that the country’s trade recorded a surplus of USD24 billion in 2012, representing a gain of 2.3 percent from a year before, reported Arabian Business.
The agency attributed the growth in merchandise trade to higher exports of energy products.
The Sultanate’s imports in the year grew by 19 percent, reaching USD27.99 billion.
