ADNOC awards $147.8 million for UAE-made industrial products

ABU DHABI, May 22, 2025 – ADNOC has awarded contracts worth USD 147.8 million to nine domestic suppliers of industrial products to be used across its value chain, the company announced on Thursday.

The agreements were announced at the Make it in the Emirates forum and facilitated by ADNOC’s In-Country Value (ICV) programme. They include supplies of personal protective equipment, drilling and production chemicals, valves, biodiesel and corrosion inhibitors. ADNOC said the contracts aim to bolster supply chain resilience, cut import dependence and generate more private sector employment for Emiratis.

“Through these long-term contracts for made-in-the-UAE products, we are turning our business demand for critical industrial products into tangible opportunities that empower manufacturers in the UAE to grow and compete. These awards highlight the attractive commercial opportunities ADNOC is creating for businesses that are ready to Make it in the Emirates,” said ADNOC executive director Yaser Saeed Almazrouei.

The suppliers include Al Ghaith Industries, Union Chlorine, C1 Water Industries, RAK CHEM Industries and EMOCHEM. The contracts work towards ADNOC’s target of locally manufacturing USD 24.5 billion worth of products by 2030, under the ICV programme, which has so far redirected USD 69.5 billion into the economy and supported jobs for 17,000 Emiratis since 2018.

The Make it in the Emirates forum serves as a key platform to highlight industrial investment opportunities in the UAE. ADNOC also promoted its Make it with ADNOC app, aimed at enhancing procurement transparency and access for manufacturers, SMEs and entrepreneurs.
