Emirates Building Systems (EBS) has strengthened its presence in Oman, by executing and winning new contracts in the Duqm area, including contracts for the prestigious Duqm Refinery project in addition to other leading projects.

A wholly-owned subsidiary of Dubai Investments, EBS is one of the leading manufacturers of steel structures in the Middle East.

As part of the ongoing contract for the Duqm Refinery project, EBS is supplying and erecting 3,000 tonnes for warehouse, maintenance, sludge and main administration buildings, and sheds, etc. which are part of  EPC 2 (engineering, procurement and construction – Phase Two) of the Duqm Refinery project.

Additionally, EBS was awarded contract for 1,500 tonnes of steel for the Duqm Integrated Power & Water Plant.

The scope of the project involves supplying and erecting steel structure for the reverse osmosis (RO) building, pre-treatment building, chemical building and wastewater building.

The work on these projects is ongoing and is expected to be completed before the end of this year.

On its expanding presence, General Manager Joseph Chidiac said: “Oman’s construction and infrastructure sector is fuelling the growth of investments and the Duqm area is emerging as a designated hub of Oman’s next industrial centre.”

“Adding to EBS’s successful track record in Oman, the new contracts won for the upcoming Duqm projects reiterate the company’s efficiency and reliability in executing projects and further strengthens our project portfolio in Oman,” he noted.

As part of the completed contracts for Duqm projects, 1,500 tonnes of steel was provided for the construction of the buildings at the commercial terminal and the operational zone areas within the Port of Duqm project.
