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 tpy. It will be powered using the latest clean energy technology, which 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 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 deliver this project.
