Near about 160 km northwest of Abu Dhabi city covering a land of 2.5 sq km, Das Island is one of the most important industrial and petroleum centers, not just in Abu Dhabi but in the whole Gulf area.
Das Island is one of the major areas in Abu Dhabi, the capital of United Arab Emirates where the off shore oil installation of different companies are located. Today's busy island with mushrooming industrial settlement, modern dwelling places, storage tanks, telecommunications masts, power houses, workshops and plants for oil and gas separation hardly bears any resemblance to the mid 50's desert island.
