C & J Engineering Abu Dhabi, also known as Ahmed Mohamed Abdul Rahim Pipe Coating Establishment, was established in 1981 as a 100 per cent local national company.

Its original remit was to offer comprehensive mechanical engineering services to its client base of oil and gas companies, government department and public utilities using UK expertise and technological innovations under internationally recognised operations and quality procedures.

Since then, the company's activities have expanded to include the design, fabrication, erection and commissioning of structural steel and pipework; coating and cement lining of pipes and vessels; equipment maintenance; structural fabrication and all operations associated with the construction industry.

The company has added chemical injection skids and other process packages and electrical and instrumentation services to its portfolio.

As a result, C & J Engineering now offers its clients a complete fabrication and construction package including the design and manufacture of skid units complete with all equipment and control systems.

The company's offices and workshop are located in the Mussafah Industrial area of Au Dhabi and comprise a total area of 24,000 square metres.

Of this, 2600 square metres is occupied by workshops for steel fabrication, machine shop operations and the coating and cement lining of pipes and vessels.

The remaining open area of the site is used for storage of completed works and as a lay down area for bulk materials.

On site operations use equipment and personnel mobilised from the main workshop which has a team of more than 100 qualified engineers and technicians.

If additional manpower is required for large projects the company can call on the resources of its partners in the UK, US and India with whom it has developed exclusive agency and representation agreements.

The firm is committed to quality and customer service, with its quality management systems certified to ISO 9002:1994 standards.
