Bilfinger Middle East, a renowned industrial services provider, has evolved significantly since its inception in 1974.
Initially focused on the water industry, the company expanded its scope to encompass various sectors such as oil and gas, refining, petrochemicals, and utilities.
Today, Bilfinger operates across the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia, boasting a robust presence in these regions.
Christian Rugland, President of Bilfinger Middle East, reflects on the company’s impressive journey, noting its transformation from a small engineering team to an organisation with over 1,500 employees spread across 10 offices.
This growth has been underpinned by a clear strategic vision, centred around sustainability and operational excellence.
"By collaborating across the entire asset lifecycle and offering tailored solutions, Bilfinger has positioned itself as a trusted partner for clients on their decarbonisation journeys," Rugland says.
Looking to the future, Bilfinger’s commitment to sustainability remains a cornerstone of its operations.
The company is actively pursuing net-zero goals, offering clients customised, phased strategies designed to help them achieve carbon neutrality.
This comprehensive approach to sustainability, along with its ongoing restructuring to integrate operational excellence, positions Bilfinger as a leader in efficiency within the processing industry.
As the company celebrates its 50th anniversary in the Middle East, Bilfinger is set to expand its reach even further.
A key focus is increasing its market share in the KA, where it has recently acquired full control of its joint venture.
