Jindal SAW Limited is setting up a 300,000 TPA seamless pipe manufacturing facility in Abu Dhabi through its UAE subsidiary. The proposed plant will be developed on approximately 400,000 sq. m of land at ICAD-II Musaffah, with completion targeted for 2027.

The facility will deploy Precision Quality Finishing (PQF) rolling technology to manufacture line pipes, oil country tubular goods (OCTG) and drill pipes. It will be the UAE’s first seamless pipe manufacturing facility based on PQF technology and the second of its kind in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.

The project is aimed at strengthening Jindal SAW’s regional manufacturing presence and serving the energy infrastructure market through local production. The company’s existing operations in Abu Dhabi include Jindal SAW Gulf LLC, which operates a ductile iron pipe facility with an annual capacity of 350,000 tonnes, catering to water transmission and distribution applications.

The proposed facility is also expected to support local procurement, technical skills development and employment generation in the UAE, while creating opportunities for collaboration with regional raw material suppliers.

Placing product reliability at the centre of the investment strategy, Sminu Jindal, Managing Director, Jindal SAW Ltd., observed, “For an energy operator, the value of a pipe lies in how reliably it performs throughout its service life. That places responsibility on manufacturers to understand operating conditions, maintain rigorous quality controls and provide appropriate technical support. Our approach to investment begins with those obligations. We see considerable opportunity to work with customers from the specification stage, so that material selection and product performance correspond to actual application needs. As we develop these projects, our priority remains disciplined execution and lasting commercial relationships built on accountability, engineering expertise and a clear understanding of what customers need from their manufacturing partners.”
