Al Khalij Cement Company (AKCC), a subsidiary of Qatari Investors Group (QIG), announced that it has been awarded the prestigious American Petroleum Institute (API) certification, allowing it to produce Oil Well Cement (OWC) Class G at Grade (s) HSR at its Umm Bab factory.
AKCC becomes the first and only cement producer in Qatar able to deliver this high specification grade of cement. The API awarded AKCC a three-year license to apply the API Monogram on its products.
OWC Class G at Grade (s) HSR is a higher specification cement, designed to withstand extreme temperatures and pressure to secure metal casings and liners in wells out of which oil and gas will eventually flow.
