Oscar Middle East broke ground on its liquid bulk terminal at Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA), with a total project investment of AED 150 million. The quayside facility, with a total capacity of 45,400 m3, will provide storage and bulk-breaking services for chemicals and base oils. The project is planned in two phases—Phase I is likely to be fully operational within 16 months. Additional storage capacity will be added in Phase II and enhancing the facility’s capabilities. “Oscar Middle East will benefit from this synergy, guaranteeing efficient trade operations and comprehensive solutions for the region’s chemical trade and logistics needs. The new facility will drive regional growth by meeting the increasing demand for local and international petrochemical products,” Abdulla Bin Damithan, CEO and MD, DP World GCC, said. The terminal will improve the infrastructure needed to support the growing demand for chemical storage in the region, serving as a key hub to expand the petrochemical trade between the Middle East and global markets.
