South Arabian to Oman Pipeline

The Arabian Sea Strategic Corridor (ASSC) proposes a phased, climate‑positive infrastructure system beginning with a secure export route from the southern Saudi oil fields to the Arabian Sea via Oman. This initial “Phase Zero” corridor bypasses the geopolitical vulnerability of the Strait of Hormuz, where ~20 million barrels/day currently transit, creating a single point of global economic failure. The southern corridor integrates a hybrid steel/carbon‑fibre pipeline, SMR‑powered pumping and desalination nodes, and a 1,000 km ecological shield designed to stabilize desert terrain, reduce thermal stress, and generate carbon‑neutral export certification. This first phase forms a technically straightforward and politically stable backbone that can be extended northward into Iraq, creating a unified regional export spine independent of regional chokepoints. Beyond the Middle East, the ASSC architecture enables a scalable “Turnkey Oasis” technology package for deployment across the African Sahel, combining nuclear‑powered desalination, ecological stabilization, and micro‑irrigation systems. The long‑term vision positions the ASSC as a multi‑continental climate‑resilience platform linking the Arabian Peninsula to Africa through secure energy, water, and agricultural infrastructure. This document presents the Phase Zero engineering concept, outlines the future expansion pathways into Iraq and Africa, and frames the ASSC as a model for 21st‑century climate‑positive infrastructure.
