Al-Jazeera Tube Mills Company was established in early 1997 following the flotation of 40 per cent of its equity. Its main founding shareholder is Moosa Abdul-Rahman Hassan Company with 20 per cent. Based in Sohar, Al-Jazeera manufactures galvanized and cold and hot-rolled black pipes for the local market and export.

It is the first company of its kind in Oman.Al-Jazeera reported sales of RO 1.18 million ($3 million) in its first full year of operation. A net loss of RO 427,244 ($1.1 million) was recorded. The loss has been absorbed by reserves.

The price of Al-Jazeera shares rose sharply in the first half of 2000 as sales moved ahead. This in part reflected hopes of a dividend pay-out in due course.
