Scroll down for a short overview of the Duqm Port and Drydock project, currently underway in Oman.
The project is priming itself for a soft-opening this April, showcasing the facility's new ship repair yard. The facility was conceived as a fully integrated ship repair services hub.
Khatib & Alami Consolidated Engineering Company was charged with the feasibility study for the port project, while a consortium of three companies (Jan De Nul, CCC and STFA Marine Construction Company) was awarded the engineering, procurement and construction project in 2007.
The Oman Drydock project is being handled by a joint venture between Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering and the government.The $800 million world-class ship repair facility is scheduled to be operational by March 2011 and will have the capacity to handle anything up to 600,000-tonne oil and gas supertankers. When fully on track, the Duqm Drydock will generate an anticipated $210 million in annual revenue and employ 3,500 people by 2020.
