Mott MacDonald and Khudairi Group partner up in Iraq

Consulting firm Mott MacDonald has partnered up with Khudairi Group, a provider of solutions to the oil & gas and construction industries, to jointy deliver projects in Iraq. The collaboration will, according to the two companies, lead to more opportunities and enhanced relationships with local ministries and international oil companies.

Khudairi Group is a provider of solutions to the oil and gas and construction industries in Iraq that began operating in the country in 2004, with the intent to play a part in the rebuilding of Iraq. The company, headquartered in Houston (Texas), has offices across Iraq and a regional office in Dubai (UAE) and employs over 250 full-time employees, operating across three primary business units: engineering, procurement, construction (EPC); oilfield supply and services and heavy machinery.

The partnership with engineering and development consulting firm Mott MacDonald combines the company’s experience in procurement, inspection, expediting and construction management services on-the-ground in Iraq with Mott MacDonald’s services portfolio and global expertise.

Mohammed Khudairi, Executive Vice President of Khudairi Group, explains the main benefits of the partnership: “Together, we will be able to capture more opportunities and support our current relationships with the Iraqi ministries and international oil companies, as Iraq continues to rehabilitate its infrastructure and focus on new projects.” Albert Allan, Managing Director Oil and Gas of Mott MacDonald, adds: “The initiative combines the strengths of both companies to offer our clients wide-ranging EPC services in this fast growing market.”
