ADNOC suspended operations at its Habshan gas facilities in the UAE after debris from a successfully intercepted aerial threat caused a fire at the site.

Abu Dhabi authorities said emergency teams responded quickly and contained the blaze. No injuries were reported. In a separate incident, debris also fell in the nearby Ajban area following air defense action.

The disruption was the second such event at Habshan. On 19 March 2026, falling debris from intercepted missiles led to a temporary shutdown at the Habshan facility and the nearby Bab oil field. No casualties were reported in that earlier incident.

Habshan is one of the world’s largest gas processing hubs, with capacity of more than 6 billion standard cubic feet per day. The site is also linked to the Port of Fujairah by a 360-km crude oil pipeline with capacity of 1.5 million barrels per day, giving Abu Dhabi an export route that bypasses the Strait of Hormuz.
