| The challenge
Borouge, leading provider of innovative, value creating plastics solutions, is a a joint venture between the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), one of the world’s major oil and gas companies, and Austria based Borealis, and is a leading provider of chemical and innovative plastics solutions. In 2010 Borouge tripled the annual production capacity of its plant in Abu Dhabi to 2 million tonnes. With further expansion to 4.5 million tonnes scheduled in 2014, Borouge and Borealis will have a combined annual production capacity of approximately 8 million tonnes of polyethylene and polypropylene.
This increased production rates have led to increased need for effective waste management and frequent requirement of industrial services on site.
| Veolia’s solution
Provide Borouge with an effective and integrated waste handling, transportation and disposal solution including domestic and hazardous waste management together with a dedicated, skilled and competent staff on site.
Provide state of the art industrial cleaning services with the inclusion of super sucker vacuum tanker in the fleet. This has drastically increased the efficiency of sumps and pit cleaning while reducing the health and safety risks on site.
Effective hazardous waste management with trained and experienced waste management professionals from handling, packaging, labeling, transportation and disposal.
| The benefits
Veolia does not place itself on the market as a service provider but it rather aims to become a waste management partner committed to create environmental awareness while delivering its range of services.
Veolia is delivering international know-how on a regional basis while strongly relying on decades of local expertise and on a network of skilled and trained professional.
Veolia has also the capabilities to support Borouge in its constant growth when it comes to both environmental friendly policy and reputation in sharing the Abu Dhabi concerns in terms of sustainable solutions.
Veolia is proud to give its contribution to the development of such a sensitive and innovative national establishment with international exposure as well as enhancing its market presence within the Oil & Gas industry in the region.
With Borouge’s continuous growth in business size, it needed a environmental services provider like Veolia to support with increased volumes of waste to handle while managing the risks onsite. Veolia has successfully executed the project with 0 lost time since 2014 which we are proud of.
In addition to the above Veolia has been supporting Borouge with the waste management and industrial cleaning services during critical turnaround times with additional competent resources and made sure that turnaround timescales are achievable.
