This industrial complex underscores the robustness of the company’s longstanding partnership with ADNOC and reaffirms its commitment to bolstering the 'Make it in the Emirates' initiative.
The newly established 200,000 m2 industrial complex, situated in Abu Dhabi Industrial City (ICAD III), is set to foster new technical and administrative job opportunities for UAE Nationals. It features an industrial training center, meticulously designed for ADNOC engineers, local talents, and partners to enhance their technical skills and knowledge.
