ADNOC L&S was selected after the completion of technical reviews and benchmarking against major regional and international ports.

PPA senior vice-president Captain Jasim Al Khamiri said: “This long term service agreement is the first of its kind in the UAE and fits perfectly with our focus on sustainable and reliable operations.

“We placed our trust in the capabilities of ADNOC L&S as the range and quality of their services, the depth of their experience and the quality of their people remain unique in the UAE.

“This will enable us to maintain and enhance our rigorous marine standards as we continue to ensure safe and efficient export of ADNOC products to the world.”

Last month, ADNOC L&S formed a joint venture (JV) with Wanhua Chemical Group.

The JV will be named AW Shipping Limited and is included in Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) in the UAE.
