Emerson has officially opened its expanded facility in Al Majal Business Park in North Rumaila, Iraq, shifting from its existing facility in Albradheya, Basrah.
The Al Majal facility will serve as a focal point of Emerson’s sales, project execution, lifecycle services, and educational services in Iraq. It is located in Iraq’s Oilfield Protection Force (OPF) protected area, in the middle Majnoon, West Qurna and Rumaila oilfields. The facility will house a team of 50 Iraqi national engineers, which could double as the business grows.
The Emerson facility consists of offices, meeting spaces, and a demonstration & training room equipped with Emerson’s portfolio of technologies, including measurement instrumentation, final control devices, control systems, and safety systems. It has access to shared facilities within Al Majal Business Park including an education center that will deliver a wide range of Emerson training courses in automation, and a service center that will support Emerson’s customers throughout the lifecycle of their operations.
Loay Almalaieka, Country Manager of Emerson Iraq, said, “Our new location in Al Majal is a good choice for Emerson’s expanding operations in Iraq due to its proximity to oil & gas fields, airport, and seaport.”
