Borouge’s contribution to these mega projects is driven by collaboration with the local manufacturing companies who selected Borouge’s products to be used to make durable and reliable pipelines for various ongoing development projects acrossEgypt,OmanandTanzania.
Khalfan Al Muhairi高级副总裁、区域MEAE Borouge, said, “Selecting our materials for such key projects reflects the competitive advantage of Borouge’s materials and the company’s ability to develop sustainable tailored solutions that fit the needs for all types of development projects. We will continue our contribution in shaping the region’s most prominent projects with our infrastructure solutions that are reliable and enable modern living.”
The pipes used in these projects were made from various grades ofBorouge BorSafe PE100polyethylene materials, enabled by advancedBorstar technology, which significantly contribute tolowering installation, operational and maintenance costsfor customers and endusers, compared to other materials.
Borouge materials also contribute toreducing carbon emissionsgenerated during the manufacturing process of the pipes and their operational lifespan. Pipes made of BorSafe material can also be recycled at the end of their lifecycle.
Some of the major ongoing projects which selected Borouge’s materials include theAl Mudhaibi Water Supply Project(Oman), where Borouge provided its polyethylene infrastructure solutions to construct a 820 km water distribution network in the Wilayat of Al Mudhaibi in North Al Sharqiyah Governorate in Oman; theToshka Project(Egypt) where Borouge supplied various grades of its innovative and differentiated polyethylene solutions to make pipes between 200 mm–1,400 mm in diameter for the first and second phases of the project; andDar Es Salaam Water and Sewage Project(Tanzania), where Borouge’s polyethylene materials were also supplied to Dar Es Salaam Water and Sewerage Authority in Tanzania for the ongoingKigamboni water project.
