Having participated in some of Saudi Arabia’s most prestigious projects, Gama Saudi Arabia has placed itself in a special league of installers of top-drawer industrial plants in the kingdom.
Gama Al-Moushegah Arabia Ltd was birthed in 1983 through the combination of the Turkish establishment Gama Industrial Plants Manufacturing & Erection Company and the Saudi Al-Moushegah Group.
Deriving technical know-how and support from the Turkish company, Gama Saudi Arabia successfully completed construction projects for clients of the ilk of Sabic, Saudi Aramco and Sceco.
Gama has implemented the ISO9002 system and is involved in civil infrastructure, equipment erection and manufacturing and in the electrical, instrumentation, pipe fabrication and erection fields and specialised services.
The company owns two fabrication and assembling facilities, one of which is in Ankara where heavy equipment, boilers and structural members are produced. The Ankara facilities are certified to ISO 9001 and the fabricated material has the ASME U, S, PP and R stamps.
The second facility is located on a 40,000 sq m yard in Jubail and is approved by Sabic and Saudi Aramco for pipe fabrication, testing, sand-blasting and painting. The main warehouse and supporting facilities are also located in that area.
“The parent company, Gama Industrial Plants Manufacturing & Erection Company, has supported the Saudi Arabian subsidiary with the experience gained in the last 40 years of construction throughout the world and has given full management and qualified manpower support throughout these 20 years that were spent in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia,” says Gama chairman Abdul Mohsen Al Moushegah.
“The story began with a 50-people dedicated crew from Turkey and continues with a hugely renowned organisation that has more than 3,000 qualified staff throughout the kingdom,” he adds.
Gama has completed a number of world-scale projects with Sabic, Saudi Aramco and Sceco, turnkey construction projects such as Ibn Zahr PP-II, Hawiyah Gas Plant contracts and Shoaiba Power Plant erection and installation jobs. The project list includes hospitals, hospitals and renovation jobs and their geographical locations extend from Ireland to Russia and from Libya to Qatar
Gama is currently working on five major projects. It is contracted to accomplish full civil and mechanical installations for Tasnee Petrochemicals’ polyethylene units and the Petrorabigh PVI PE development project. Both projects are to be completed by June of next year.
Gama is also working on the Siemens AG Shoaiba IWPP boiler erection project for which it has the full civil and mechanical installation contract. The work is to be completed in April 2009.
Under a contract with Arabian Cement Company, it is working on the construction of Rabigh Cement Plant’s Line 6. Saudi Aramco has contracted Gama to perform mechanical installation work for its NGL recovery plant in Hawiyah. The project was awarded in 2005 and is to be completed at the end of this year.
Earlier this year, Gama completed projects for Natpet, Sceco West and Yamama Saudi Cement Plant. The Natpet contract related to installation work for a polypropylene plant in Yanbu and the Sceco contract related to installation work for the 6 X 380 MW Shoaiba Power Plant phase 2 stage 2 in Shoaiba, Jeddah. For Yamama, Gama worked on the seventh cement plant and sixth cement mill at Riyadh.
In recent years, Gama completed for BGP the Qatif facilities at the Berri Gas Plant and for EPCC a new clinker production line. It also worked on an ammonia-urea plant for Safco, a polyethylene project for Petrokemya, a gas plant for Hawiyah, an epoxy resins project for Nama, a polypropylene project for Ibn Zahr, the DR module project for Hadeed, an olefins project for Petrokemya and a cement factory for Sakufa.
