Adnoc starts self-service programme in Abu Dhabi

The retail business of Emirates National Oil Company (ENOC) plans to increase capacity by 40% between 2016 and 2020 across its network of service stations in the UAE. The growth plans include ongoing renovation of two major service and the construction of 54 new stations in Dubai. The expansion will meet ENOC ‘s long-term strategic objectives which are aligned with the Dubai Plan 2021 of creating a ‘Smart & Sustainable City’ for ‘Happy, Creative & Empowered People’. “We are looking at an increased growth over the next few years as ENOC expands and aims to be an international integrated oil & gas player,” said Burhan Al Hashemi, Managing Director of ENOC Retail. The stations will feature new energy saving technologies, such as the use of a photo voltage (PV) solar panels system which will be installed onto the main canopy of the service stations to generate power with the DEWA grid system. ENOC Retail is currently operating a net- work of over 112 service stations in Dubai and the Northern Emirates Regionally. It also operates three service stations in Saudi Arabia with plans to build 11 more in 2016.
