Potential for import / export in India / Gujarat Market UAE companies are in talk with Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals Ltd (GACL) Proposes to set up caustic soda facility in UAE. State-owned Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals Ltd (GACL), the country’s largest caustic soda manufacturer, is in talks with a UAE-based business group for setting up a caustic soda manufacturing facility in the UAE. The Rs 1,200-crore GACL has asked the foreign player to conduct a market survey to assess the demand for caustic-chlorine products in the UAE. The GACL officials were in Dubai recently to take this further. “The UAE-based entity had approached GACL seeking its co-operation to establish a caustic soda manufacturing plant in the UAE. Currently, a market survey is being carried out on the type of ancillary industries present there and the requirement of caustic and chlorine in the UAE,” sources close to the development told Business Standard. They said the nature of collaboration would be finalised only after the results of the survey were out. The market survey is likely to take around four months. While the name of the group is not known, it is a leading business houses with operations in the UAE. GACL is also said to be open to the idea of joining hands with the foreign player. GACL managing director Guruprasad Mohapatra believes that there is a good potential for caustic soda and chlor-alkali business in the West Asia. “If things work out, the production capacity of the plant may be in the range of 750 tonnes per day (tpd) to 1,000 tpd,” sources said.

increased reliance of transportation sector on oil, economic growth will continue to be strong due to oil revenues. UAE economy has been in a state of boom of the past eight years with the GDP recording double growth rates in each successive year. Despite largely successful efforts at economic diversification, nearly 40% of GDP is directly based on oil and gas output. A number of challenges face the UAE, some relating to the oil industry itself, and others concerning the economic management of the oil wealth. Aside from the need for a large capital infusion into the industry, UAE has the additional challenge of using the sector as a vehicle for increasing intraregional trade. The most important challenge, however, lies in designing appropriate macroeconomic policies to ensure that the oil wealth is managed effectively. The oil market this year in 2009 has been strongly impacted by the financial crisis, global recession and resulting erosion in world oil demand. These factors have substantially magnified the uncertainties affecting the market and contributed significantly to volatility. The UAE's anti-crisis stimulus measures as a percentage of (GDP) are the largest among global emerging markets and is set to boost liquidity. The UAE Central Bank has put in place two support packages worth Dh120 bn and has also guaranteed bank deposits and allowed lenders to perform dirham-dollar swaps. The Abu Dhabi Government pumped about Dh16 bn into a recapitalization exercise involving five banks. These measures constitute about 16% of the country's 2008 GDP. Measures taken by bank, positive signs of economic recovery and the recent surge in oil prices due to OPEC production cuts has contributed to reviving investor confidence. This coupled with increased demand of oil and gas from developing economies is set to give an optimistic look to the UAE oil and gas sector. World oil consumption is expected to rise for the first time in two years in 2010 as a recovery in the global economy boosts demand. As one of the fastest growing economies in the world, the outlook for the UAE economy is very positive and this scenario is likely to continue in the foreseeable future.
