Abu Dhabi Ports Company (ADPC) and Hyundai Engineering and Construction have signed a contract agreeing on the allocation of a dedicated 40,000 sq metre plot of land and warehouse facilities covering 4,536 sq metres, which will be used for the import and export of cargo to support the Satah Al Razboot (Sarb) project.

Hyundai Engineering and Construction has been a long term customer of ADPC, and this contract reflects the increased import and export volumes which will be required to support the company’s contract with Abu Dhabi Marine Operating Company (Adma-Opco) for the Sarb Field Development Project Package 4 EPC work.

The plot of land and warehouse at Zayed Port will also include a temporary storage facility and workshop that will undertake light assembly fabrication work coupled with a lay-down yard for accommodation modules and other materials.

The contract agreement was signed by Gary Lemke, Executive Vice President Ports, ADPC, and Hong-Joo Lee, Administration Manager, Hyundai Engineering and Construction.

Lemke said, "Hyundai Engineering and Construction is a valued long term customer of ADPC, and we have been working together for some time to understand their requirements and establish how we can provide the additional facilities that they will need to service the SARB project. 

Hong-Joo Lee added, "The Sarb Field Development Package 4 EPC work is an Adnoc strategic initiative, which will support the Government’s oil production enhancement plans and Abu Dhabi’s broader development strategy. The development project is part of Adma-Opco’s overall scheme to add 200,000 barrels a day of additional production from its new offshore fields, with about 100,000 barrels per day coming from SARB oilfield."
