New KEZAD facility strengthens regional supply capabilities for offshore, marine, and industrial sectors. 

Abu Dhabi, UAE — Cable Solutions division has strengthened its Middle East operations through Dron & Dickson Electrical and Cable Solutions – L.L.C, with a new 607 sqm facility opening in Khalifa Economic Zones Abu Dhabi (KEZAD). 

This strategic investment marks an important new chapter for the Cable Solutions division, strengthening the company’s ability to serve the region’s offshore, marine, and industrial sectors through local stockholding, faster delivery, and enhanced customer support. 

The KEZAD facility will hold extensive inventories of offshore, subsea, marine, fibre, and data cables, including: 

  • NEK 606  
  • BS6883 / BS7917  
  • AmerCable Gexol Type P cables 
  • AmerCable Service Loops 
  • Subsea cables 
  • Fibre & data offshore cables 

By establishing a strong in-country presence, Cable Solutions will improve availability and efficiency for clients throughout the UAE and surrounding markets — reducing lead times and supporting critical projects with reliable, on-demand cable supply. 

“Our new facility in Abu Dhabi reinforces our long-term commitment to the region,” said Scott Grant, General Manager. “We’re re-establishing relationships with our valued partners and clients while creating opportunities to work with new customers across the Middle East.” 

Cable Solutions is on course to be fully operational with stock by early 2026, positioning the business to deliver exceptional service and product availability to customers across the region. 

In addition, Cable Solutions are exhibiting at ADIPEC 2025 alongside Scottish Development International at the EIC UK Pavilion (Hall 8, Stand 8450) showcasing its full range of cable solutions and connecting with industry leaders and partners. 

With more than a century of experience in electrical and cable solutions, Dron & Dickson continues to combine technical expertise, quality assurance, and local capability — ensuring clients receive the trusted products and service excellence the company is known for worldwide.

AREG has played an important role in the growth of Scotland’s renewable energy sector, engaging the supply chain and developing the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre. However, we are only at the very beginning of the transition that AREG was established to both lead and support so there are still opportunities for companies to get into the constantly evolving renewables supply chain. We look forward to continuing our work together as renewables builds on its place as Scotland’s main source of power, and as we seek to deliver real change in the crucial areas of heat and transport.

Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce has worked closely with AREG since its formation. The recent progress in the developments of offshore wind projects by Equinor and Vattenfall are as a result of the work of the group over many years. The north-east is known as the oil and gas capital of Europe. At the Chamber, we believe the region must evolve its position to being recognised as the energy capital. Whilst hydrocarbons will continue to be essential in driving our economy for years to come, the generation of renewable resources will play an increasingly important role in providing cost-effective power, innovative development and economic growth.

The enthusiasm and dedication of the early group that would become AREG was fundamental in us choosing to launch All-Energy in Aberdeen. The first tiny show was held in 2001, and AREG’s Chairman at the time, Jeremy Cresswell, played such an active role that I often describe him in terms such as All-Energy’s ‘midwife’. All-Energy is now the UK’s largest renewable and low carbon energy exhibition and conference in terms of number of attendees, space booked, and number of exhibiting companies. As AREG became firmly established, their presence and support for the event grew spectacularly over the years. We thank them most sincerely for their invaluable input.

Vattenfall has forged a strong working relationship with AREG through the development of the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre. AREG has worked tirelessly on behalf of the North East and it can take enormous credit for the growth of sustainable energy in the region and the path it has cleared for the region to capture further investment.

Aberdeen City and Shire is emerging as a key location for renewables by successfully transferring its world-class oil and gas expertise into the sector and AREG has done much to advance this through a broad range of initiatives. It has acted as a catalyst in driving further investment in the local economy by engaging with companies, Government, public bodies and existing projects and we have been pleased to support their efforts. Scottish Enterprise will continue to engage with AREG as we increase Scotland’s use of renewable energy.
