The memorandum of understanding between the energy-focused financial institution TAEF and Dussur aims to facilitate financing opportunities for TAEF through bridge financing in selected projects promoted by Dussur.

TAEF's chief banking officer, Nicolas Thevenot, expressed excitement about the partnership and its alignment with TAEF's planned investment of up to $1 billion in decarbonization and related technologies over the next five years.

The text is about a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between the Technology Development and Industrialization Company (TAEF) and Dussur, a Saudi Arabian investment firm.

The MoU aims to advance industrialization and economic diversification in Saudi Arabia by providing a framework for collaboration between the two parties.

Dussur, which is backed by the Public Investment Fund, recently launched an oilfield services and industrial chemicals factory in Jubail in partnership with Bakers Hughes.

The Saudi Petrolite Chemicals facility is expected to boost the Kingdom's supply base of raw materials like solvents and glycols.

Omar Al-Qarawi, Dussur's director of finance and accounting, expressed his pleasure about the MoU and the potential for increased collaboration and sustainable industrial investments.

The text describes the goal of accelerating the development of Saudi human resources in manufacturing to increase localization rates and quickly deliver chemical solutions.

The ceremony to launch this initiative was attended by Saudi Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman, Investment Minister Khalid Al-Falih, and Minister of Industry and Mineral Resources Bandar Alkhorayef.
