This paper aims to analyse the sustainability of the fishing industry in the Al-‐‑Batinah region in Oman using the Gordon-‐‑Schaefer model and descriptive data. The Gordon-‐‑Schaefer model did not give a realistic result with the data available. Looking at descriptive statistics of historical landings, there is nothing indicating that overfishing has been a problem in the region historically, but if current policies continue, it may develop into a future problem.
