Industrial Collaboration to Shape a New EnergyBlueprint

Following commissioning, UEK will focus on thelocalized production of highend oil and gas equipment, covering key areas suchas drilling and workover equipment, gas compression units, nitrogen injectionsystems, and oil & gas production enhancement equipment, while providingprofessional services for energy development projects in Oman and the widerMiddle East. Kerui Oil & Gas will leverage its strengths to deliverglobally leading R&D technologies and manufacturing expertise, particularlyinnovations in unconventional oil and gas development equipment. Meanwhile, UESwill rely on its strong regional market resources, mature localizationoperations, and robust supply chain network to ensure that products andservices are precisely aligned with local needs.

The inauguration of UEK is thefruitful outcome of the strategic partnership between KeruiandUESa convergence of shared vision and ambition.
