Acquisition

ADNOC to acquire 15 service stations in KSA

ADNOC Distribution, the UAE’s largest fuel and convenience retailer, has announced its plans to acquire 15 service stations in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, reaffirming its commitment to grow its business in KSA, the largest fuel retail market in the GCC. The purchase consideration for this acquisition is $10m (AED36.7m). Located in the eastern region, with sites dedicated to both highway commuters as well as in-community convenience, the new stations will be refurbished and offer high quality fuel and retail services to customers, including convenience stores. Speaking about the company's plans, its acting chief executive officer, Ahmed Al Shamsi, said: “Expanding our presence in Saudi Arabia is an important milestone for our company and part of our profitable growth strategy. We see this expansion as a natural progression since opening our first station in 2018 and look forward to significantly increasing our presence in the coming years. This is the first announcement of many we intend to make with Saudi being a key strategic market for us as we make ADNOC service stations a destination for all in Saudi. ” ADNOC Distribution opened its first service station in Saudi Arabia in December 2018, located on the Riyadh-Dammam highway around 40km from the capital. It was followed shortly after by the second in the city of Hofuf within Al Ahsa Governate. Upon completion of this transaction, the new locations will bring the company’s total network to 17 across the kingdom. “Saudi Arabia is the largest market in the GCC and there is huge potential for experienced fuel operators like us to consolidate the market and capture further growth,” commented Al Shamsi.

Project / Development

The well, known as Murban-3, was completed in May 1960, and began producing crude oil at a rate of 3,674 barrels per day. It took another three years of drilling, the creation of a 112km pipeline, and the construction of an export terminal in Jebel Dhanna, before exports could begin, with the first tanker of Abu Dhabi crude departing Jebel Dhanna port on 14th December, 1963. Subsequent fields were quickly discovered - including the giant Bu Hasa field, west of Bab, and the Bida Al Qemzan, Asab, Shah and Sahil fields. Then, in 1971, as revenues from oil production started to grow, the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan established the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC). Since then, we have played an integral role in Abu Dhabi’s economic development, managing, producing and preserving the emirate’s hydrocarbon reserves, on behalf of the Abu Dhabi Government. In the last 45 years, we have been the principle catalyst of growth in the emirate, and our work has had a positive and lasting impact on the quality of millions of lives. Today, while we manage and oversee production of around 3 million barrels of oil per day - which places us among the largest oil producers in the world – our portfolio has also expanded to include sophisticated refining and petrochemicals businesses; an extensive network of gas and petrol service stations, and a modern transportation fleet that includes LNG and LPG carriers, oil and chemical tankers, bulk carriers and container vessels. We are committed to proactively exploring new and innovative ways to enhance and expand our operations, to ensure we continue to positively impact the United Arab Emirates' economy, and ensure the country’s longer-term prosperity.
