Arabian Cement's Rabigh plant to begin operations in 2Q20
27 September 2019


Construction work on Arabian Cement Co’s grinding plant in Rabigh, Saudi Arabia, is now 99.3 per cent complete. Full completion is due in the 1Q20 and commercial operations are scheduled to begin in the second quarter of next year.

The company has stated that the contractor’s failure to comply with the schedule had caused project delays, according to a stock market filing. However, the delay in construction work has not affected the costs associated with the project and is not expected to have any impact on the company’s financial results.

Arabian Cement also noted that it was studying a clinker production line project for Phase 2.
