Indian Naval Ship Surat arrived at Muscat, Oman, on 08 November, 2026 to participate in the 15th edition of the bilateral maritime exercise ‘Naseem Al Bahr’ (Sea Breeze), followed by a Coordinated Patrol (CORPAT) between the Indian Navy and the Royal Navy of Oman.
The exercise will comprise professional activities during the harbour and sea phases, including cross-deck visits, operational interactions and sporting events. These activities will provide opportunities for personnel of both Navies to exchange experiences and Best Practices, enhance interoperability and foster greater mutual understanding.
The port call underscores the strong and enduring maritime partnership between India and Oman, founded on longstanding ties between the two nations. It is in consonance with the Government of India’s vision of MAHASAGAR (Mutual and Holistic Advancement for Security and Growth Across Regions) and provides an opportunity to build upon the momentum.
