DUBAI, Sept 21 (Reuters) - Raysut Cement, Oman's largest cement producer by market value, said on Wednesday it had raised production capacity at its factory to 130,000 to 140,000 tonnes of cement per year.

The development would increase the company's profitability, it said. The statement did not mention the factory's previous output capacity.
