Mujlad (Arabic: المجلد), also spelled Muglad, is a city in West Kordofan state in the west of Sudan. It is the center of the Misseriya tribe, sometimes also transliterated as "Messeria".
In the late seventies and early eighties, Muglad was used as a staging area for oil field operations, mainly by California-based Chevron, due to its location within the Muglad Basin. At the Muglad airport, air operations were conducted in DC-3, Convair and also leased Hercules from Transamerica to link the PP West with the capital Khartoum.
