The firm said it had moved its operations to a new Dubai location to further strengthen support for clients in the United Arab Emirates, and other Middle Eastern countries. The new operation is part of the company’s growth plan for the region, which also includes an office in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Black & Veatch said the new operation would enhance the company’s ability to provide local support to further the development of critical power, water and oil and gas infrastructure in the region.
Len Rodman, Chairman, President and CEO for Black & Veatch said,
“Understanding that water and energy are inextricably linked is crucial for modern infrastructure planning. This is especially vital in arid areas such as the Middle East. We bring together Black & Veatch’s globally recognized energy and water expertise in one location and combine it with our integrated project team approach. This allows us to better meet the needs of local clients.”
Dubai-based professionals from Black & Veatch’s Energy, Water and Construction & Procurement divisions have relocated to the new operation in Dubai’s Internet City. Which will now provide an operations base for planning and execution for both professional services and engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) projects.
Current Black & Veatch water projects include the US $120 million Wadi Dayqah Water Supply Scheme in Oman; and the Kuwait 8 B Sewerage scheme in Kuwait
