SAMSUNG E&A demonstrated its global engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) capabilities by winning an award at the Middle East's most prestigious project awards for the 15th consecutive year.

SAMSUNG E&A announced on November 11 that its Jafurah Gas Processing Facility project in Saudi Arabia won the Strategic Energy Infrastructure Special Award at the MEED Projects Awards ceremony held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE), on November 10.

The MEED Projects Awards are organized by MEED (Middle East Economic Digest), a weekly publication specializing in the Middle East economy. The awards recognize outstanding projects in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region each year. With this latest award, SAMSUNG E&A extended its winning streak to 15 consecutive years, dating back to 2012.

The award-winning Jafurah Gas Processing Facility is one of Saudi Arabia's largest unconventional gas field development projects. SAMSUNG E&A won the contract from Saudi state-owned oil company Aramco and carried out the entire engineering, procurement and construction process. Despite external uncertainties, including the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war, the project achieved its first production of sales gas in December 2025.

SAMSUNG E&A applied a differentiated project execution strategy to reduce process risks. It introduced large-scale modular construction, carrying out underground piping and equipment work alongside the fabrication of above-ground modules, and used precast concrete (PC) for approximately 44% of the total concrete volume. The company also expanded off-site construction, in which structures are fabricated away from the site and then installed, increasing construction productivity and efficiency.

A SAMSUNG E&A representative said, "Winning for 15 consecutive years means that our clients and the market have consistently trusted our project execution capabilities. We will further strengthen our position in the Middle East through differentiated execution innovation and the highest quality."
