An impression of Al Sowwah Island in Abu Dhabi
A team of Teesside consulting engineers has clinched a major contract in the Middle East. Simpson Coulson & Lees, of Billingham, has secured a contract to provide technical expertise on an 80 000 TR district cooling plant on Al Sowwah Island in Abu Dhabi.
The project will supply cooling to more than 95 000 mixed-use units on the island. “The project is already under way, and we need to recruit around 20 staff,” reported partner Trevor Arnold.
The company is also in the running for a luxury Rosewood Hotel project in Abu Dhabi. Opening in early 2012, Rosewood Abu Dhabi will be located on Al Sowwah Island. “Our order book for the next nine months is strong,” added Arnold. “We are aiming to hit £2m in turnover next year.”
Simpson Coulson & Lees’ origins date back to 1965.
