Infinite Mining & Energy has signed a deal with the Hamriyah Free Zone Authority (HFZA) to build a new oil refining unit in Sharjah, UAE.
The Indian company plans to double its investment in the free zone and set up a new multifunctional oil refinery.
According to the HFZA, the new unit will have the capacity to produce 10,000 barrels of oil daily and up to 3.6 million barrels per year.
Under the agreement, Infinite will lease 200,000ft² of land to construct its facilities.

HFZA director Saud Salim Al Mazrouei said: “Infinite’s new facility will be a significant addition to the emirate’s burgeoning economic landscape through its production volume, which caters to the demand for energy products and derivatives for both existing and future industrial projects.”
