CWO Awards: The Wave wins Commercial Project prize
The integrated tourism complex in Muscat is currently home to some 4,000 residents
The Wave Muscat was named Commercial Project of the Year at the Construction Week Oman Awards 2015 held at the Grand Hyatt in Muscat on Monday.
The integrated tourism complex won praise from judges for "having created a vibrant facility enjoyed by many which really adds something extra to an already successful development."
Steve Russell Rayner, head of project management at The Wave, said: "We're very pleased that The Wave has got recognition for the really important opening of The Walk which opened in July last year. It's a huge benefit to the development and we're looking forward to now adding to The Walk with additional amenities coming along."
The Construction Week Oman Awards 2015 were judged by an independent panel of seven judges, made up of a range of industry experts. If a judge’s company had entered a category then they didn’t evaluate that category.
A total of 13 categories were open for nomination plus a Lifetime Achievement award picked by Construction Week’s editorial team
A big thank you must go to our sponsors who helped to make the evening a great success. They include: Aecom, Famco, Oman Electromechanical Contracting, Logical Decking, CCC, Services & Trade Company, Alemco Zawawi and NAPCO.
The Construction Week Oman Award 2015 was the first of four award evenings to be holding across the GCC this year, with other events set to follow in Qatar and Saudi Arabia, before we hold our GCC finals in December.
