The visit marked the commissioning of a new catalyst logistics silo terminal and the end of Phase 1 of construction for the first fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) catalysts manufacturing facility in the Middle East. Phase 2, detailed engineering, is underway, with operations expected to begin in 2018. The approximately $150 million facility, located in the Kizad Industrial Zone approximately 70 km outside Abu Dhabi, will serve refineries throughout the Middle East and potentially other regions.
