SENDAN International and Saudi Basic Industries Corporation (SABIC) have forged a strategic partnership that significantly contributes to the Kingdom’s Vision 2030.
This collaboration focuses on key areas such as localisation, workforce development, technological innovation, and sustainability.
“Together, they drive industrial growth and enhance competitiveness,” Heon Jae Yim, CEO, tells OGN energy magazine in an interview.
One of the latest initiatives, a state-of-the-art modular construction and fabrication facility in Jubail, highlights SENDAN’s commitment to localisation and diversification.
This expansion strengthens SENDAN’s position as a leading player in the Kingdom’s industrial construction sector.
“By expanding its service portfolio to include specialised offerings such as hydro jetting, chemical cleaning, vacuuming, valve testing and maintenance, and rotating equipment overhauling, SENDAN improves efficiency, shortens project timelines, and meets the increasing demands of large-scale industrial brownfield and retrofit maintenance projects. These improvements ensure SENDAN remains a reliable partner and strengthen its position as a comprehensive onestop industrial solutions provider,” says Yim.
Below are excerpts from the interview:
• How does SENDAN’s partnership with SABIC and other operating companies support Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030?
SENDAN enjoys a strong reputation with major petrochemical companies like SABIC and Aramco JVs. Our collaboration focuses on economic diversification and reducing dependency on foreign resources. SENDAN plays a pivotal role in creating local job opportunities, transferring global expertise to the local workforce, and establishing a self-sustaining industrial construction base. This partnership empowers Saudi nationals to shape the Kingdom’s future economy.
