Consistent delivery of GMA Garnet™ to offshore oil field projects

GMA PremiumBlast™ garnet and  GMA Newsteel™ garnet are used in several offshore oil field projects in  the Middle East.

One of the major oil fields is the Umm Lulu, Bu Hasser, Nasr 1 for the blasting of deck-jackets and pipelines. Our garnet abrasives products are also used for Saudi Aramco jackets, slipover jackets and decks.
