for sustainability

Abu Dhabi-based Al Masaood Group’s Industrial, one of the largest integrated industrial, commercial, and service organisations in the Middle East, showcased solutions and innovative technologies for the advancement of the UAE’s energy sector at ADIPEC, with a focus on sustainability.

PRINCIPALS AND TECHNOLOGY partners represented included GSW, S&W, 4IR Solutions, BBV, KSB, KSB SupremeServ, Schroedahl, Quartzelec, MAN Energy Solutions, CHART, TRANTER, and Nidec Leroy-Somer.

Speaking to Oil Review Middle East, Dr Khursheed Alam, senior manager of Al Masaood Group’s Projects & Engineering Services Division (PESD), said, “We have more than 45-50 global world-class manufacturers with us, and this year we’re showcasing three new segments. We have partnered with a company that will provide carbon capture solutions and technology. Currently, we are looking to target experts and bring them into our joint venture.”

Furthermore, Dr Alam explained,“Al Masaood PESD is offering hydrogen solution equipment manufactured in India. Along with this, we are bringing new expertise and technology from 4IR Solutions related to the online real-time analyser for crude oil and we hope to sign an agreement with ADNOC for this technology.”

Discussing the growing demand for sustainable solutions, Dr Alam said, “This is where the demand is now, and we want to be the first provider. Al Masaood PESD has progressed to the point where we can offer cost-effective and user-friendly solutions, and our entire R&D team is working on this.”

Dr Alam highlighted Al Masaood PESD’s commitment to the UAE’s local manufacturing sector, which is in line with the UAE’s Industrialisation strategy and ‘Make it in the Emirates’ campaign.

“As a first step toward local manufacturing in 2023, we are planning to help develop the manufacturing sector in the UAE. We are going to be part of the Ruwais chemical industrial plant, providing solutions and expertise on a wide range of rotating, process, and static equipment for maintenance activity in the TA’ZIZ setup.”

Dr Alam is optimistic about business prospects. “The market is improving, and new projects are emerging, creating opportunities. We’ve seen the launch of TA’ZIZ, (the ADNOC/ADQ joint venture to drive industrial development at Ruwais), major announcements and a lot of demand for carbon capture, with ADNOC looking into new solutions.”

Turning to the secret of Al Masaood PESD’s success, Dr Alam underlined the division’s commitment to understanding what the market requires and delivering to these needs. “On the basis of that, we strive to access the recent technologies from around the world and provide them to our clients.”

In this respect, ADIPEC was a huge success for Al Masaood PESD, which signed partnership agreements with various global brands to bring innovative technology-driven solutions to the UAE market. They included a new collaboration with leading Saudi Arabiabased company Pan Gulf Holding (GSW) to provide pipe cladding solutions, weld overlay, fabrication of skids and pressure vessels, and retrofit activities for any brownfield project for the oil and gas industry across the UAE, as well as a renewal of its partnership with South Korea-based S&W to supply highperformance valves for the oil and gas, power, nuclear, and utilities sectors. n

We strive to access the recent technologies from around the world and provide them to our clients.”
