ENOC eyes UAE expansion with 25 new service stations

UAE-based leading integrated global oil and gas company ENOC Group is planning to open 25 new service stations across the UAE, including 12 service stations in Sharjah, 11 in Dubai, and two in the Northern Emirates, by the end of 2021.

ENOC will increase its fuel retail footprint in the UAE from 152 to 177 service stations by the end of the year as a part of the latest expansion. Three of the 11 stations planned in Dubai will be compact stations, which will be located in Dubai South, DAFZA and Dragon Mart, International City, and will be ready by 2021, ENOC stated.

According to the company statement, ENOC will also build one marine service station in Dubai. The Group also plans to open five more compact stations by 2022, one in Dubai and four in Ras Al Khaimah.

“As a National Oil company, we are committed to building the infrastructure of the UAE to meet the growing demand. The expansion of our service station network complements our focus to expand our retail footprint to serve the community.

Across the UAE, the ENOC Group provides a variety of fueling concepts and services, ranging from conventional service stations and compact stations to ENOC Connection and containerized fuel tanks to serve Business-to-Business (B2B) customers at their locations.
