The International Petroleum Investment Company (IPIC) was established by the Government of Abu Dhabi pursuant to an Emiri Decree in 1984 with a mandate to invest globally in energy and energy related industries. The Government owns 100 per cent of IPIC and appoints all the members of its board of directors. Over its history, IPIC has been supported by equity contributions from the Government of Abu Dhabi. The Chairman of IPIC's board of directors is Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed al Nahyan, a member of the ruling family of Abu Dhabi, the Deputy Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the UAE Minister of Presidential Affairs. The Managing Director of IPIC is Khadem Abdulla Al Qubaisi.〔Borealisgroup homepage (Ownership on IPIC ), visited 28 February, 2015〕 IPIC is a long term strategic investor and it holds more than 14 investments in over 10 countries and on five different continents. Its investment portfolio includes: * two wholly owned operating companies, being Nova Chemicals, a leading North American plastics and chemicals company based in Canada, and CEPSA, a leading Spanish integrated oil and petrochemicals company; * two majority owned operating companies, being Borealis, one of the world's largest polyolefin producers and Aabar, a diversified investment company; and * minority stakes in Cosmo Oil, a leading Japanese refining and marketing company and OMV, a leading Austrian integrated oil and gas company with a presence throughout Central and Eastern Europe. In addition, IPIC is undertaking the following strategic projects: *the multi billion dollar ChemaWEyaat project at Madeenat ChemaWEyaat Al Gharbia, which is expected to comprise a series of world class petrochemicals complexes with access to Abu Dhabi's gas and liquid petroleum feedstocks. The first phase of this project is expected to be completed in 2015 and it is expected to be the world's largest single site petrochemicals facility, comprising an aromatics complex, including a naptha reformer, paraxylene and benzene units; *ADCOP, a 400 kilometre pipeline project which connects Abu Dhabi's key onshore oil fields to an export terminal located in the Emirate of Fujairah on the Indian Ocean (outside the Persian Gulf). The pipeline is intended to help mitigate the risk of a suspension of Abu Dhabi's crude oil exports in the event of a closure of, or a disruption to, the Strait of Hormuz and is expected to provide increased capacity in the export of Abu Dhabi's crude oil. The pipeline became operational in June 2012 with a capacity of 1.5 million barrels per day. IPIC intends to gradually raise the pipeline's capacity to 1.8 million barrels per day; * the continuing expansion of the Borouge project (a joint venture in which IPIC's subsidiary Borealis has a 40.0 per cent. stake) to bring advanced technology and expertise into Abu Dhabi to strengthen and develop Abu Dhabi's industrial base and hydrocarbon and petrochemicals industries; * the multi billion dollar Fujairah Refinery project in the Emirate of Fujairah, which will process UAE crude oil, such as Murban and Upper Zakum; * the Emirates Liquefied Natural Gas project ("ELNG"), a 50/50 joint venture with Mubadala Oil and Gas, a business unit of Mubadala, involving the development of a new LNG regasification facility on the UAE’s east coast in Fujairah; and * the Duqm refinery and petrochemicals project (the "Duqm Refinery"), a 50/50 joint venture with Oman Oil Company S.A.O.C., involving the development of a new oil refinery situated on Oman’s east coast in Duqm. Since its inception, IPIC has acquired extensive insight and understanding of the hydrocarbon industry and the fundamentals of investing and portfolio management. IPIC leverages its experience to invest across the entire hydrocarbon value chain while seeking synergies across its investment portfolio. == Company history == Principal events during IPIC's history include: :1984 The Government established IPIC pursuant to Emiri Decree No. 3 of 1984.
