Answer:

O to reduce its dependence on its oil industry for revenue

Step-by-step explanation:

Oman used to be one of the poorest countries in the Middle East, until Oil was discovered there (Same story with UAE, and Qatar). So when they run out of Oil, they will be completly reliant on Manufacturing, Exporting, and Tourism.
