VALUE CREATION
Sadara represents a major step forward in the strategies of Saudi Aramco and Dow to drive growth further downstream, and in value-added businesses.
Customers, particularly those in emerging geographies, such as China, the Middle East, Eastern Europe and Africa, will benefit from a strong supplier with feedstock integration, in-market commercial and supply capabilities, advanced technologies and resources to grow with their demand. The Sadara complex will provide the needed capacity and will include a world-scale cracker that will be able to crack a wide range of feedstock.
ECONOMIC DIVERSIFICATION
Sadara will be a relevant and meaningful contributor to the Saudi Arabian economic agenda. As a standalone enterprise, Sadara represents the largest foreign direct investment in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Once operational, Sadara would contribute significantly to KSAâs industrial diversification by providing additional value chains within both the joint venture and the industrial PlasChem Park. The diversity of the products from Sadara will complement the existing materials available in Jubail to attract additional foreign direct investment and further contribute to the diversification of Saudi Arabia's economic base. Ultimately, Sadara will be instrumental in Saudi Arabiaâs strategy to become not only a strategic chemicals and plastics producer, but also a hub for future downstream industrialization.
EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES
As of end of 2013, Sadara has already hired more than 2,100 top-notch professionals and skilled workers, the majority of them Saudi nationals. Sadara will not only create thousands of employment opportunities, both directly and indirectly, but will also bring about economic diversification and professional development of local human resources.
More than 1,000 apprentices have been undergoing training in various Saudi Aramco facilities in Saudi Arabia and internationally, and 850 new Sadara employees will be taking out-of-Kingdom on-the-job training assignments in various Dow and Dow joint venture facilities in North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
