Saudi Arabia, UAE lead office quality fit-out investments
The corporate sentiment in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) is geared towards targeted investments in overall space design and fit-outs to support return-to-office strategies, according to leading real estate expert JLL. This has accelerated demand for high-quality Grade A office spaces and fit-outs that enhance workplace experience and performance. In its latest 'EMEA Office Fit-Out Cost Guide 2025', JLL has identified Saudi Arabia and the UAE among the top countries globally with a high proportion of cost for high quality finishes, averaging more than $2,400/sqm, against the global average of $1,830/sqm, as workplace design becomes a component part of talent attraction and retention. The JLL EMEA Office Fit-Out Cost Guide 2025, which analyses data from 25 countries to provide insights into cost variations, drivers, sustainability concerns, and market sentiment, has also outlined the complex cost pressures for the EMEA construction sector in 2025, with office fit-out costs increasing in the last 12 months. The steady rise in costs reflects the growing trend of organisations (44%) in the region to increase office-based workdays over the next five years. Dubai also ranks among the top 20 cities globally in the City Cost Index, reflecting continued competition for Grade A spaces, while in Saudi Arabia, initiatives such as regional headquarters (RHQ) programme is also driving demand. JLL has also found that sustainability is a key driver in many relocation strategies and office fit-outs, with 68% of organisations globally planning to increase investment in sustainability performance in the next five years. In MEA, the sentiment is strongest in Saudi Arabia and the UAE, where 78% of corporate real estate leaders aim to enhance value through sustainability. Maroun Deeb, Head of Project & Development Services, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain at JLL, said: "The general optimism towards investing in workspaces is likely to continue throughout 2025 as growth-oriented corporations invest in office fit-outs to support their hybrid workplace policies." "Targeted investments to enhance employee experience will see an increased focus on workplace design, innovative technology solutions, and refurbishment opportunities amid growing interest in healthier, energy-efficient workspaces," he stated. Several factors are contributing to the current market dynamics. Supply chain disruptions in 2024 disproportionately affected the Middle East and North Africa, tightening project timeframes and escalating pricing. According to JLL, builders' works, which includes partitions, flooring, finishes, and joinery, typically accounts for the largest component of fit-out costs, ranging from 26% in Cairo and 36% in the UAE to 40% in Saudi Arabia. These costs are among the most susceptible to raw material prices and supply chain risks, it stated. Mechanical & Electrical (M&E) services now account for a higher proportion of office spend as stricter environmental and sustainability standards require more complex systems. Cairo (39%) ranks among the top cities globally for average proportion of costs per sqm for M&E services, while Dubai (30%) and Riyadh (29%) are on par with the global average cost of 29%. Technology integration is also pivotal to enhancing hybrid work environments across all office typologies, with companies in MEA investing in improved and extended AV systems. Gary Tracey, the Head of Project & Development Services UAE at JLL, said: "The demand for high-performance office spaces is intensifying in the UAE as stakeholders increasingly prioritise environmental considerations to drive asset value." "Offices that embrace innovative technologies and sustainable design principles and have higher levels of green certification command a premium, especially in Dubai. Investments to improve sustainability will mitigate future operational expenses, remaining highly attractive to tenants seeking modern, efficient workplaces," he added. JLL said the momentum for sustainable workplaces continues to surge in the region, driven by corporate commitments, evolving expectations, and stricter regulatory requirements. Companies are weighing the cost-benefits of relocation to newer Grade A buildings compared to upgrading existing assets. However, organisations in the region face challenges in meeting sustainability requirements due to limited suitable stock and high costs of upgrading older buildings. To address these challenges, early planning and integration of sustainability targets in relocation strategies and fit-out projects are crucial, it stated. Ahmed Hemmat, Head of Project & Development Services at JLL in Egypt, said: "In a climate of economic uncertainty, organisations that build flexibility and agility into planning will be better positioned to adapt their work settings to evolving workforce needs." "This also supports leasing decisions, as flex spaces optimise costs for landlords and occupiers and create a more engaging and productive work environment to support the needs of today's hybrid work model," he added. Despite the complex landscape of challenges and opportunities, office construction will remain active in the region. To ensure the success of fit-out initiatives, JLL recommends the need for greater collaboration and effective partnerships. From environmental and smart building systems to adaptive workspaces and settings, supply chain engagement is critical in managing costs and allowing for innovation in future-focused workspaces.

Abu Dhabi's XRG targets LNG and gas capacity of up to 25m tonnes per annum by 2035
Adnoc's global energy investment arm XRG aims to have a gas and LNG business with capacity of between 20 to 25 million tonnes per annum by 2035 as it looks to scale up its operations globally. XRG's board, which includes Adnoc group managing director and chief executive Dr Sultan Al Jaber, former BP chief executive Bernard Looney and Blackstone's Jon Gray, approved a five-year business plan for the company on Monday. 'XRG is investing in the energy systems of the future – more integrated, more resilient, and responsive to global demand,' Dr Al Jaber, who is also the executive chairman of XRG, said. 'We are scaling platforms in gas, chemicals and energy solutions to drive long-term value and ensure energy remains a catalyst for sustainable growth and development.' XRG was launched last year as an international lower-carbon energy and chemicals investment company, with an enterprise value exceeding $80 billion. In December, President Sheikh Mohamed endorsed the appointment of the board of directors for the new unit. Other members of the board include Mohamed Alsuwaidi, UAE Minister of Investment and managing director and chief executive of Abu Dhabi's holding company ADQ, and Nassef Sawiris, the executive chair of OCI Global. The board 'supported the assessment of potential upstream gas M&A and LNG opportunities to strengthen its North American gas position", the statement said. Last month, the UAE made an announcement to increase the value of its investments in the US energy sector to $440 billion by 2035, from the current $70 billion, during US President Donald Trump's visit to the Gulf countries. That is part of the UAE's plan to invest $1.4 trillion in the country. XRG bought a stake in NextDecade's Rio Grande liquefied natural gas export facility in Texas last year along with other acquisitions in Mozambique and Turkmenistan. The board also endorsed the 'company's ambition to create a top-three global chemicals platform", the statement said. 'Subject to respective regulatory approvals, the proposed formation of Borouge Group International and the proposed acquisition of Covestro anchors an industry-leading portfolio across polyolefins, performance materials, and future speciality segments.' In December, XRG announced the acquisition of the German chemicals company Covestro for an enterprise value of €14.7 billion ($15.3 billion). In March, Adnoc also agreed to terms of a binding agreement with Austria's OMV to merge their polyolefins business and create a $60 billion Borouge Group International. The board also directed XRG through its Energy Solutions platform to expand its investments across the energy value chain "while continuing to develop select opportunities in carbon capture and storage and low-carbon fuels such as biofuels and low-carbon hydrogen that align with attractive return profiles". That comes amid growth in AI-linked power demand, particularly in the US, the statement added.

UAE-based Thorbjorn Olesen powers through epic qualifier to punch U.S. Open ticket
Grit, heartbreak, and the odd twist of fate were on full display Monday as golf's 'Longest Day' lived up to its billing. Across 10 sites and 47 available spots, players from all walks of life and countries including the UAE-based Dane Thorbjorn Olsen earned his ticket in Canada, where seven spots were available due to the PGA Tour's concurrent presence. The Danish golfer resides in Dubai with his family, having moved here around 2023. He has expressed that living in the UAE allows him to spend more time with his family and significantly improve his game. Other qualifiers included a 17-year-old high schooler and even a practising dentist - who secured their place in the 2025 U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club outside Pittsburgh. But one thing was clear: Monday may have been the "Longest Day in Golf," but for many, it was also the most unforgettable. New Yorker Cameron Young was the headline act in Ohio, making a stirring late charge that saw him birdie three of his last four holes to sneak into a brutal 5-for-1 playoff. With nerves of steel, he drained a 12-foot birdie putt to clinch his berth in golf's ultimate examination. 'I feel like I showed myself something today,' Young reflected. 'For so long today I saw nothing go in. I started my day here 12 hours ago and made a 3, so I tried to do it again,' he added. A gruelling Road for Homa Meanwhile, Californian native Max Homa endured a punishing 38 holes lugging his own bag around the course after recently parting ways with his caddie. Fatigue took its toll, and a costly three-putt on his final hole sent him into a playoff rather than through safely. Despite a valiant effort, he fell short of automatic qualification and walked off with only a shot at an alternate spot. Rickie Fowler, who is known for his dynamic playing style and vibrant personality, also came up short, his campaign undone by a bogey when it mattered most. In brighter news for fans of consistency, South African Erik van Rooyen put in one of the day's cleanest performances, carding a 64 at Kinsale and cruising through six shots clear of the cut line. Bud Cauley, Lanto Griffin, Justin Lower, and Harrison Ott joined him among the qualifiers. A Young Star Emerges There were also moments of youthful brilliance. In Atlanta, 17-year-old Mason Howell delivered a blemish-free performance over 36 holes, finishing at 18-under-par to lead the field. Joining him were Auburn standout Jackson Koivun and Florida State's Tyler Weaver- evidence that the future of American golf is in good hands. Howell's feat was all the more striking considering the sheer pressure of the day and the elite company he kept. Dentist Turned Dreamer Across the country in Walla Walla, Washington, Matt Vogt turned heads with a story straight from a movie script. Now a practising dentist and oral surgeon based in Indianapolis, Vogt balances his professional career with competitive amateur golf, the Indiana native secured his own fairytale return - this time as a player at the U.S. Open. In North Carolina, Zach Bauchou led the field, adding another chapter to his growing resume. A former college roommate of Viktor Hovland, Bauchou had the Norwegian star on his bag during a past qualifier. LIV Players Fight for Places In Maryland, 15 LIV Golf players originally entered the field, but only one - Marc Leishman - made it through. Leishman edged out fellow LIV member Sebastian Munoz, booking a long-awaited return to major competition. Many others either failed to submit cards or withdrew before play began, including Bubba Watson and Lee Westwood. In Florida, heavy rain forced a suspension of play, delaying the fate of several hopefuls. Meanwhile, the final result in Columbus hinged on Bud Cauley's world ranking should he remain inside the top 60, Chase Johnson could get a call-up to his first-ever U.S. Open, after narrowly missing out but winning the playoff for alternate spots.
