Oscar Middle East, a Dubai-based shipping and freight forwarding company, has initiated work on its USD 41 mln liquid bulk terminal at Jebel Ali Free Zone (Jafza).
The quayside facility will have a total capacity of 45,400 cubic metres (m3) and will provide specialized storage and bulk-breaking services for chemicals and base oils.
The terminal will be built in two phases, with the first phase expected to be fully operational within 16 months. Additional storage capacity will be added in the second phase, the company said in a statement.
UK-headquartered global engineering consultancy Mott MacDonald will oversee the project’s concept design, basic and detailed engineering, as well as project management contract.
