Versalis, the Eni chemical company, Petrochem and Mazrui Energy Services have signed an agreement to establish Versalis Petrochem Mazrui (VPM), a joint venture for the commercialization of innovative chemicals for the Oil & Gas industry in the Middle East.

Petrochem, a manufacturer of drilling fluids, is a Mazrui Energy Services Company. Mazrui Energy Services, a service company in the Oil & Gas industry in the Middle East, is a Mazrui International Company.

The new company, the primary Oil & Gas trade fair held in Abu Dhabi, will mainly use locally manufactured oilfield chemicals to ensure prompt product availability and competitive advantages in terms of logistics, reliability and customer assistance, within a highly demanding and specialist market such as the Middle East.

 Versalis Petrochem Mazrui is already well positioned to offer a broad portfolio of high value-added oilfield chemicals under the brand Versalis e®, designed to meet the specific needs of the O&G sector, improving the quality, quantity, reliability, and sustainability of production.

 The new JV draws on Versalis’ expertise and long-standing experience in industrial production and, in particular, will look to leverage its research and development capabilities to guarantee flexible, responsive, and personalized services to the end customer.

The partnership with Mazrui will enable greater proximity to customers and the ability to compete against major players in the market. The partnership will enable Versalis to extend its oilfield chemicals business to the Middle East, (Gulf Cooperation Council countries, Yemen and Iraq), following its recent access to the US market, which is an important springboard for the Gulf of Mexico area and the Americas.

Versalis already operates in Africa through commercial companies in Ghana and Congo, and in Italy with activities throughout the whole country.
