Engineering and project support
We provide engineering, procurement, construction management, commissioning and start-up support for process, chemical and water treatment plants, and field services in the UAE.
Overview
ENGSL supports industrial plant projects from front-end engineering through construction, commissioning and handover. We work on oil and gas, chemical, water treatment and carbon capture facilities.
Our projects include a carbon capture system and a caustic soda plant for EnPro in Norway, a seawater reverse osmosis plant in Morocco and a soda ash plant in the UAE. In Kuwait we are pre-qualifying and bidding for EPC and project-support work as part of a consortium.
The Managing Director, Olfi Mohammed, has 27 years of senior operations experience with ADNOC and international EPC project-management experience through Costain UK. His career is described on the Leadership page.
