A tender to oversee the building of a substation that will power the multi-million rial Mall of Oman has been issued.

Muscat's electricity board wants companies to bid to supply consultancy and supervisory services for design and construction of a primary substation for the much anticipated Mall of Oman. 

Muscat Electricity Distribution Company (MEDC) issued the tender today.

Dubai-based Majid Al Futtaim Properties is constructing the massive mall near Muscat Expressway in Bausher, to be built at an estimated cost of OMR275 million.

When it opens in 2020, Mall of Oman will be the largest integrated retail, leisure and entertainment destination in the Sultanate. The super-regional mall will feature 350 outlets in a 137,000 sqm retail space, and the country's largest snow park.

The last date of submission of tenders is July 4, 2017, according to MEDC.
