Petro Rabigh completes periodic maintenance, resumes operations

Argaam16-06-2025
Rabigh Refining and Petrochemical Co. (Petro Rabigh) completed, on June 15, the periodic maintenance and the resumption of operations of the facilities and production units.
This was with the exception of the high olefins fluid catalytic cracker (HOFCC), which requires additional time to complete the comprehensive periodic maintenance and resume operations.
In a statement to Tadawul, the company said that the financial impact of this shutdown will appear in the financial results for Q2 2025. However, the company noted that this financial impact cannot be accurately estimated at this stage, as it is contingent on the completion of HOFCC's maintenance and resumption of operations.
In April, the company announced plans to carry out comprehensive and scheduled periodic maintenance for all operational facilities and production units at the company's complex. It added that the maintenance would last 60 days from April 15, requiring a complete shutdown of these units, Argaam reported.

flyadeal expands regional footprint with new Dubai office

Saudi Arabia's fast-growing low-cost airline flyadeal has opened a dedicated sales office in Dubai to support customers and the travel trade, in the latest move to increase its presence in the emirate. With the appointment of Orient Travel as the airline's new general sales agent responsible for overseeing flyadeal sales in the UAE, the airline has also recruited Mudassir Dhanse as its new UAE country sales manager. The opening ceremony of the new office, located within the premises of Orient Travel on Sheikh Zayed Road, was attended by key travel partners. Orient Travel Co-owners Sheikh Fahim bin Sultan bin Khalid Al-Qasmi and Sheikha Lubna bint Khalid bin Sultan Al-Qasmi, presided over the opening. Orient Travel CEO Asim Arshad and visiting senior management from flyadeal headquarters in Jeddah, led by CEO Steven Greenway and Chief Commercial and Customer Officer Rogier van Enk, were also present. flyadeal currently operates up to six daily scheduled flights between Riyadh and Dubai International Airport, a route launched just over two years ago. The airline also has a daily service linking the Saudi capital with Dubai World Central in southern Dubai that began in summer 2024. flyadeal CEO Greenway said: 'flyadeal has built up a successful split operation in Dubai to serve travelers in the heart of the city and the southern part to make accessibility easier for all. Of course we are looking to build capacity even further from up to seven daily flights across both Dubai airports as we induct new aircraft into the fleet. It's just a matter of time before we increase frequency on these highly popular routes as we also look at venturing beyond Dubai exploring additional new route opportunities into other UAE markets.' Orient Travel has been named flyadeal's new general sales agent responsible for overseeing the airline's sales in the UAE. Farooq Ahmad, flyadeal head of sales, added: 'We've been gradually stepping up our international sales support network across the region. The addition of a GSA in Dubai to cover the UAE and having Mudassir onboard, who is well known to the UAE travel trade, provide us with a strong presence to provide our passengers and travel trade with the go-to support in one of the most dynamic markets in the Gulf.' flyadeal has become one of the region's fastest growing airlines with a current fleet of 39 Airbus A320 family aircraft serving more than 30 seasonal and year-round destinations in Saudi Arabia, Middle East, Europe, North Africa and South Asia. The airline is set to more than triple in size in fleet and destinations served by 2030. The carrier has just embarked on its summer seasonal flying program with the return of popular destinations in Egypt, Turkiye, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
