Oman Towers Seals Strategic Partnership with Brookfield to Drive Telecom Growth
The move, celebrated in a recent ceremony, cements Brookfield’s majority acquisition of Oman Towers, first announced in June, and signals heightened international investor confidence in Oman’s telecom tower market.
Oman Tower Company (Oman Towers), a key player in the Sultanate’s telecom infrastructure sector, has officially concluded a strategic partnership with Brookfield, the global asset management giant with over US$1 trillion under management. The move, celebrated in a recent ceremony, cements Brookfield’s majority acquisition of Oman Towers, first announced in June, and signals heightened international investor confidence in Oman’s telecom tower market.
Majid Amer Al Kharoosi, CEO of Oman Towers, emphasized that the partnership extends beyond capital investment. He noted that it will reinforce the company’s financial and operational capabilities, strengthen governance, and ensure long-term sustainability — all in alignment with Oman’s national digital ambitions.
Established in 2018, Oman Towers currently oversees around 2,450 tower sites nationwide in partnership with mobile operators. Despite Brookfield taking a controlling stake, existing investors Burooj Telecommunications Networks and Al Souroh Investment remain on board as strategic partners.
For Brookfield, the deal expands its growing telecom tower footprint in the Middle East and adds to its global network of approximately 315,000 tower sites. This includes its landmark acquisition of ATC India, which brought 257,000 sites into its portfolio through the Data Infrastructure Trust (DIT). With this acquisition, Brookfield has positioned itself as the world’s second-largest tower operator and the largest outside China.
