Dubai Investments Park (DIP), a unique integrated commercial, industrial and residential community in the Middle East wholly-owned by Dubai Investments, has announced the opening of its first fuel station.

Located between DIP-1 and DIP-2, the service station is being operated by Emirates National Oil Company (Enoc), said a statement from Dubai Investments.
 
Spread over an area of over 6,250 sq m – with a forecourt of over 350 sq m and the Zoom convenience store extending over 135 sq m, the service station offers a comprehensive array of services offered by Enoc’s outlets.

In addition to fueling facilities, the Enoc station features a Pronto Cafe outlet, drive-through outlets of McDonald’s and Tim Hortons, as well as Berts Café, Shawarmanji and Papa Murphy’s. The fuel station also has an ATM for added convenience of motorists, and features AutoPro, the full-service car repair outlet of Enoc, it stated.

The service station operates round-the-clock and offers huge benefits for motorists within DIP, which has attracted a number of industries and residents over the years, the statement added.

Omar Al Mesmar, the general manager, said: "DIP is today 90 per cent fully operational and there is an increased vehicular movement within our commercial and residential space. Our strategic location close to the Al Maktoum International Airport, Jebel Ali Port and the arterial highways also leads to heavy truck and cargo traffic to and from DIP."

DIP, he stated, continues to grow as per its envisioned goal to become a self-contained city-within-a-city. "We also have plans to open more fuel stations within DIP in the coming years," he added.

Enoc Retail managing director Burhan Al Hashemi said the new service station features a full spectrum of amenities that will add value to motorists.

"It will enhance their convenience for retailing as well as offer lifestyle experiences that will benefit the entire DIP community. The expansion further highlights our commitment to be closer to our customers and to support Dubai’s all-round growth by serving as the energy partner of choice," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
