Amec Foster Wheeler announced that it is expanding its UAE operations in response to recent key contract awards and growing opportunities in the Middle East.

Amec Foster Wheeler has established Abu Dhabi as its Middle East hub of expertise in the region. The company now has over 700 employees in the UAE, supporting 2000 people across the Middle East region.

Amec Foster Wheeler is currently busy executing a number of contracts from Abu Dhabi, the largest of which is a project management consultancy (PMC) contract for the UZ750 project in the Upper Zakum field.

In addition to providing PMC services, Amec Foster Wheeler is growing its detailed design capability in Abu Dhabi to service local customers. The company also offers an integrated service offering through its consultancy companies based in Abu Dhabi, from the very commencement of the project through to commissioning and beyond.

As well as providing oil and gas services, Amec Foster Wheeler is also looking to expand its non-hydrocarbon business across the Middle East by leveraging global capability in the clean energy, environmental and infrastructure and mining markets.

Following completion of the Abu Dhabi office expansion in Khalifa Park, a ribbon cutting ceremony was held on 29 September.
