The UAE plans to complete the expansion of the West-East crude oil pipeline, which is expected to double export capacity through Fujairah, by 2027.
The expansion plans were reviewed during a meeting of the Executive Committee of Adnoc’s Board of Directors chaired by His Highness Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, according to the Abu Dhabi Media Office on Friday.
The Habshan–Fujairah pipeline, often referred to as the West–East crude oil pipeline, stands as one of the UAE’s most significant strategic energy projects. It is aimed at reinforcing the country as a reliable global energy supplier while strengthening Fujairah’s emergence as a major international oil hub.
