Uruk brings together Iraq’s best minds in the energy and power generation industry. These individuals had been at the forefront of the nation’s energy sector, establishing national power grids and creating a nationwide energy and industrial network; and they were then tasked to rebuild the nation’s energy infrastructure in 1990. They formed a private enterprise in 2003 intending to help rebuild Iraq’s energy infrastructure. Their mandate was to offer Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) services to the public and private sector, leveraging their intricate knowledge of local resources and regulations while applying the international standards of excellence they had rigorously implemented in their respective fields. Uruk’s team members – men who had been responsible for the country’s most significant engineering feats in power and electricity over the past three decades – successfully completed the company’s first major project within just two years. Uruk is a fully Iraqi-owned company headquartered in the United Arab Emirates with offices in Baghdad and Dubai. The company offers turnkey solutions with single source responsibility for all its projects, employing the best local expertise while seamlessly integrating state-of-the-art technology, resources and best practices. Uruk has worked with several global players such as Bechtel International, GE, and ABB and served several Iraqi ministries.
