OXEA started in March 2007 as a buyout of oxo derivatives and oxo intermediates businesses from two international chemical companies. Since December 2013 OXEA is part of Oman Oil Company (OOC).
Based on OXEA’s platform, OOC plans to expand its chemicals portfolio. OOC has access to competitive raw materials and due to its geographic location, is a gateway to the Asian market, giving OXEA the opportunity of further development in these emerging markets.
OXEA is a young company whose roots date back to 1918 and was part of a number of renowned predecessor companies (see image).
