1.0 FOCUS
The GCC countries have the benefit of huge reserves built up as a buffer over the years, which will continue to spend on an estimated $172 billion worth of infrastructure and capital projects planned and under way in 2015
UAE’s Al Maktoum International Airport expansion, billed as the biggest airport in the world, is the first among the GCC projects by cost. The industrial project in Abu Dhabi for Tacaamol Al Gharbia Chemicals Industrial City is the second largest project.
Several billions being planned on capital projects, with the top sector for 2015 being mixed-use and residential projects
In Saudi Arabia, the largest project in pre-execution phase is the Al Mozaini-Riyadh East Sub Centre. The second largest project in pre-execution phase is Khozam Development in Jeddah.
In Qatar, the two largest projects in pre-execution phase and expected to be awarded in 2015 are from QRail, namely the QIRP: passenger and freight rail, and from QIRP, whose passenger and freight rail: phase 2.
This is followed by two projects, one for the new Qatar Economic Zone, which is one of the three new planned economic zones mainly focusing on logistics and air freight companies (expected to be the biggest of the three), and Occidental Petroleum Corporation — Idd e Shargi North Dome Expansion phase 5.
Of the total $2.8 trillion projects which are in execution and pre-execution phases, 40 per cent of the value relates to residential, leisure and hospitality buildings and mixed-use developments, totalling an anticipated budget value of $1.1 trillion, Deloitte said.
