The Sohar Refinery Improvement Project (SRIP) is a multi-billion dollar project for Oman Oil Refineries and Petroleum Industries Company (ORPIC).  It is a response to the need to upgrade refining capability to further maximize the value of Omani crude oil.  At the same time, it significantly improved environmental performance on the back of the recent progress made ORPIC's Environmental Improvement Program (EIP).
