Wood has been present in the Middle East for over 90 years, delivering large-scale energy projects across the full asset life cycle. As we continue to strengthen our presence and reputation as a leading engineering partner in the region, we are pleased to open our third office in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Fostering engineering innovation and collaboration in energy
Located in Sharjah, our new 18,625 square foot office will act as an engineering hub to deliver various engineering contracts, supporting operations across the UAE and Iraq. Around 200 personnel will occupy the purpose-built facility, which has been designed to foster innovation and collaboration, and accommodate our expanding portfolio and growing footprint in the Middle East.
“As Wood continues to achieve substantial growth across the Middle East, we’re delighted to announce the opening of our Sharjah office. As Wood’s third office in the UAE, Sharjah underlines our commitment to investing in local talent and accelerating transformational projects in the Middle East. Our Sharjah office will enhance both regional and global delivery and further position us for growth, now and in the future.”
