A proposed data centre campus in Oman is planned to support AI and high-performance computing workloads, with an initial capacity of up to 45MW. Oman Observer reports that the Khazaen Data Campus, in Barka, could eventually expand to 100MW, subject to demand and infrastructure requirements.
Why it mattersThe project has entered its design phase, with initial operations targeted for 2028, subject to approvals and development progress. The scale and intended workloads make this a concrete addition to AI computing infrastructure, not merely another site with a technology-flavoured name.
Discuss: Should projects like this have to make firm commitments on power and water use before their construction plans advance?
