ENOC, a downstream-focused firm owned by the emirate’s sovereign wealth fund Investment Corporation Dubai, operates service stations, fuel terminals and oil tankers in the Gulf.
“It’s too early in the year to say if there will be no acquisitions at all, but I think for the time being the focus is our current refineries,” chief financial officer Petri Pentti told Reuters by telephone. He added at the end of 2009 the company held assets worth $6.5 billion.
“This year the focus will be on the vertical integration of the business and upgrading our refineries and so far there are no plans for any investments,” Pentti said. ENOC, which began commissioning new units at its Jebel Ali refinery in December after completing a $850 million overhaul, is raising capacity to about 120,000 barrels a day (bpd) from 70,000 at present, Pentti said.
“The new units will start around May,” he said. The project’s initial budget was around $500 million, but Jebel Ali, like many other energy projects worldwide, suffered cost inflation as oil ran up to a record high near $150 a barrel in 2008. Jebel Ali is the smallest of four refineries in the UAE. The largest is the Ruwais plant run by the refining unit of the Abu Dhabi National Oil Co (ADNOC) and has capacity of 415,000 bpd. —
