Saudi based Delmon Industrial Complex to launch Dh50M manufacturing plant in Abu Dhabi

Khalifa Economic Zones Abu Dhabi (KEZAD) Group, the UAE's largest operator of integrated economic zones, and Saudi Arabia’s Delmon Industrial Complex have signed a 50-year land lease to establish a cutting-edge plant in ICAD III (KEZAD Musaffah), designed to support the oil and gas industry in the region.

With an investment of Dh50 million from Delmon Industrial Complex, the plant will manufacture and supply essential products for oil and gas companies in the UAE and beyond. This new venture marks a strategic expansion for Delmon Industrial Complex, a part of the Delmon Group, which has been a key player in mining, oil and gas, chemicals, construction and logistics since its establishment in 1981 in Dammam, Saudi Arabia. Delmon Group also provides solar solutions as part of its offerings.

The upcoming facility in KEZAD represents Delmon Group’s commitment to expanding its footprint into the UAE. The plant, covering approximately 59,000 square meters, will engage in exploration, extraction, and refining, transforming minerals into specialized products tailored for the oil and gas sector. This development aligns Delmon Industrial Complex with KEZAD’s growing community of manufacturers dedicated to servicing the industry and bolstering local manufacturing.

Abdullah Al Hameli, CEO of Economic Cities & Free Zones at AD Ports Group, said, “The agreement with Delmon Industrial Complex opens another new chapter in our history of partnerships with well-established manufacturers expanding into the UAE. We look forward to the beginning of a long and successful journey with them, and hope that this undertaking will support industry requirements adequately".

“The collaboration is part of our strategy to meet sustainable manufacturing goals in alignment with the wise leadership's vision and enable further diversification of our economy towards resilient development and growth", he added.

Ahmed Sulaiman Alghunaim, Founder of Delmon Industrial Complex, expressed the importance of the new plant, saying, “The establishment of the Delmon Industrial Complex is an important step towards developing and expanding our business in the oil and gas sector in the UAE. Our choice of the Emirates was based on several factors, the most important of which is the importance of this sector in the Emirates, and the good reputation of KEZAD Group in providing the best services to investors".

The establishment of Delmon Industrial Complex in KEZAD reflects the strategic vision to foster sustainable manufacturing, supporting the full oil and gas production cycle, from upstream extraction to downstream distribution. Delmon Industrial Complex aims to deliver innovative products and enhanced service efficiency by leveraging its advanced facility and KEZAD’s robust industrial support systems, ultimately ensuring greater speed-to-market for clients in the oil and gas industry.
