India’s Nuberg EPC, a global leader in engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) services for the chemical process industry, has been awarded a contract to execute a Chlor-Alkali expansion project with a 120 tonne per day capacity and a 80 TPD Calcium Chloride Plant for Al Ghaith Chemical Industries at Sur Industrial City, Oman.

The development marks the second phase of Al Ghaith’s integrated chemical complex in Sur and represents the first-of-its-kind large-scale Chlor-Alkali expansion in Oman.

Executing on a Lump Sum Turnkey basis, the project scope covers design, Feed, detailed engineering, procurement, fabrication, construction, commissioning and handover, reflecting Nuberg EPC’s comprehensive in-house capabilities across the EPC value chain.

Project execution is already underway, with completion targeted within 19 months, reinforcing the company’s track record in agile implementation and delivery excellence, said Nuberg EPC in a statement.

In Phase I, Nuberg EPC successfully delivered a 70 TPD Chlor-Alkali Plant, establishing Al Ghaith’s manufacturing base in Oman. The current expansion adds 120 TPD of Chlor-Alkali capacity, taking the plant’s total capacity to 190 TPD and substantially strengthening Oman’s downstream chemical ecosystem, it stated.

A major player in the Middle East’s chemical sector, Al Ghaith Chemical Industries has operations across Oman, UAE and the wider GCC region.

The company produces caustic soda, calcium chloride, hydrochloric acid, sodium hypochlorite, and other chlorine derivatives, serving vital industries such as oil & gas, water treatment, and manufacturing. Its continued capacity growth underscores a commitment to regional self-reliance and eco-efficient industrialization.

Over the years, Nuberg EPC and Al Ghaith Industries have cultivated a strong and enduring partnership built on advanced technology capabilities, precision engineering, and timely project execution.

In Abu Dhabi, this collaboration has yielded landmark successes - from the commissioning of a 60 TPD Chlor-Alkali Plant, later expanded to 120 TPD, to the execution of a 125 TPD Calcium Chloride Plant and a 50 TPD Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) Plant, said the statement.

Each milestone exemplifies Nuberg EPC’s capability to deliver complex, high-value chemical plants with world-class quality and reliability, it added.

"Al Ghaith’s business expansion is not merely a measure of growth - it is a reaffirmation of the deep trust our partners place in Nuberg’s technological acumen, EPC excellence, and execution credibility," said AK Tyagi, Chairman & Managing Director, Nuberg Group of Industries.

"Our long-standing partnership with Al Ghaith underscores Nuberg’s prowess in delivering world-class, value-centric EPC solutions that power industries and propel economies. Together, we are driving Oman’s industrial transformation - strengthening its chemical manufacturing landscape through projects that exemplify innovation, operational agility, and uncompromising safety,"stated Tyagi.

Nuberg EPC’s footprint in Oman is backed by a strong legacy of performance in the region. Earlier, the company had executed the expansion of the 45 TPD Chlor-Alkali Plant along with a Greenfield 80 TPD Calcium Chloride Plant for Oman Chlorine in Sohar, enhancing the total chlor-alkali capacity to 75 TPD.

This proven expertise and long-standing trust in Oman’s chemical manufacturing sector further reinforce the significance of the new Al Ghaith Industries project, reflecting Nuberg EPC’s continued role as a preferred partner for critical process industry developments in the country, it added.-TradeArabia News Service
