Wood selected as project management consultancy for first major methanol plant in the UAE

Wood has secured a contract from TA’ZIZ to provide project management consultancy (PMC) for the development of the UAE’s first methanol production facility in Al Ruwais Industrial City, Abu Dhabi.

Construction will be completed by 2028 and the plant will be one of the largest methanol plants in the world, producing 1.8 million tonnes per year. It will be powered using the latest clean energy technology.  This will make it among the most energy efficient.

Gerry Traynor, President of Eastern Hemisphere Projects at Wood said: “Wood is continuing to deliver complex projects at scale for our clients in the Middle East region, a key strategic growth region. This win with TA’ZIZ is testament to our world-class expertise in downstream chemical facilities and extensive project management capabilities. We are proud to support TA’ZIZ on this significant project for the UAE.”

Around 40 Wood project management consultants, supported by experts at the company’s regional energy transition hub, will work with TA’ZIZ’s engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractor to successfully deliver this project.
