United Arab Emirates

UAE & ADNOC.
Where We Have Won the Most.

The UAE is home, and it is where Venti Red has won the most business. Oil and gas with ADNOC and Borouge. Construction with Meydan and Rove. We know how UAE procurement actually works, and exactly where foreign manufacturers lose.

Where UAE Projects Are Actually Won

Two arenas dominate the UAE for industrial manufacturers. Oil and gas, led by ADNOC and Borouge, and construction, led by the major developers and their consultants. Both are specification driven. The product is chosen long before the tender, inside the engineering and design teams. Miss that window and price will not save you.

Oil and Gas

ADNOC Offshore, ADNOC Onshore, ADNOC Gas and Borouge run the largest industrial programmes in the country, and Scott has won here. The £500K Dalma gas project with ADNOC, a £250K project with Borouge, and a run of smaller offshore and onshore awards. The route in is specification influence and the EPC contractors who write the specs, not a vendor portal.

Construction

The UAE construction market rewards manufacturers who get written into the consultant specification. Scott won Meydan Racecourse and the Rove Hotels portfolio, each worth over $100K, by building specifications with WSP, Atkins, Cundall and Black & White Engineering before procurement began.

A Straight Answer on Vendor Approval

ADNOC vendor approval is a long, hard road. It takes years, not months, and anyone telling you otherwise is selling. We advise on the process and the right sequencing, but we will not pretend we can fast track a registration the operator controls. The faster route to revenue is the specification and the EPC contractors, and that is where we focus.

In-Country Value

ICV scoring matters in UAE procurement. We advise on how to structure your commercial approach to score well while protecting margin. That is knowledge, not a promise of approval.

Operators and Contractors

ADNOC Offshore, ADNOC Onshore, ADNOC Gas, Borouge, DEWA and ENOC, alongside the EPC contractors active in country including Técnicas Reunidas, Tecnimont, Saipem and McDermott, and the UAE's major developers and consultants.
