Abu Dhabi, UAE — Borouge has signed an agreement with the National Petroleum Construction Company (NPCC), a UAE-based Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) Company, which includes a sales contract worth nearly AED60 million for supplying steel pipe coating solutions to NPCC for use in infrastructure and energy projects.
As part of the agreement, Borouge will also supply critical materials for major UAE energy projects, including the Borouge 4 project, ADNOC Gas’ sales gas pipeline network enhancement (ESTIDAMA) program and Maximizing Ethane Recovery and Monetization (MERAM) project, ADNOC’s Hail and Ghasha Gas Development project, and ADNOC Offshore’s Umm Lulu field.
Borouge and NPCC have previously partnered to provide steel pipe coating solutions for over 15,000 kilometers of pipelines in various local infrastructure projects.
Hazeem Sultan Al Suwaidi, CEO of Borouge, said, “Our steel-pipe coating solutions play a critical role in ensuring the resilience of natural gas pipeline networks and refining facilities. This agreement builds on our long-term partnership with NPCC.”
Borouge’s three-layer polyethylene steel pipe coating solutions safeguard pipelines in onshore and offshore projects, such as deep-sea gas and oil pipelines, against demanding conditions, including abrasion, mechanical impact, chemicals in the soil, environmental elements and external factors like ultraviolet radiation from sunlight during outdoor storage and extreme temperatures.
Ahmed Salem Al Dhaheri, CEO of NPCC, said, “Our latest collaboration harnesses our combined strengths to deliver solutions for the new natural gas pipeline in Al Dhafra, a critical national project requiring superior materials and world-class innovation.”
