AquaChemie Middle East has broken ground on its strategic, world-class petrochemical terminal in DP World’s flagship, Jebel Ali Port, Dubai.
The AED150 million ($40 million) project will serve as a vital gateway, facilitating and boosting the growing petrochemical trade between manufacturers and end-users in the Middle East and globally, while also addressing the acute shortage of storage facilities for redistribution and lease for bulk chemicals in Jebel Ali Port.
The state-of-the-art specialized bulk storage terminal will have a total envisaged capacity of around 40,000 CBM (Cubic Meter), out of which 35,000 CBM will be in bulk storage tanks and about 5,000 CBM in ISO tanks and drums. It is scheduled for construction completion by early Q2 2022.
