FCC wins Borouge expansion contract in Abu Dhabi

Spain-based Fomento de Construcciones y Contratas, FCC, the parent group of the Austrian construction giant Alpine has been awarded a $111 million contract for the expansion project of Borouge – an Abu Dhabi based leading supplier of high-quality synthetics. The 'Borouge 3' expansion project will increase the petrochemical plant's total production capacity by 2.5 million tons of polyolefins annually to 4.5 million tons by 2014.

FCC's Alpine will build the non-process buildings of the Borouge 3 expansion project, which include 26 facilities, consisting of office buildings, production plants and warehouses. Construction is scheduled to commence shortly, with project completion planned in 2013.

Borouge is a joint venture between the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), one of the world's largest oil companies, and the Austria's Borealis, a leading provider of chemical and innovative plastics solutions. The Borouge 3 project is the second project being implemented by Alpine for the ADNOC Group.
