The Abu Dhabi Ports Company (ADPC) has awarded Middle East construction and engineering company Al Habtoor Leighton Group (HLG) a AED1.04 billion ($285 million) project at Khalifa Port and Industrial Zone (KPIZ).
The scope of work will include the construction of 91 kilometres (km) of pipeline, 124 km of electrical reticulation, 48 major services culverts and bridges and move 12 million cubic metres of earthworks, among others.
The project, known as KPIZ Industrial Zone A Infrastructure Central and South, is due for completion by September 2012.
According to HLG, the KPIZ project is the company's second for ADPC.
"We are delighted to continue playing such an important role in the development of Abu Dhabi’s key infrastructure," said HLG CEO and Managing Director Laurie Voyer.
"Securing new work with our existing clients is an important element of HLG's growth strategy."
HLG was previously awarded the first phase of the KPIZ project, valued at some AED1.4 billion (US$380 million), to construct "on-shore port facilities and including the construction of 47 buildings and associated infrastructure works".
The KPIZ will be a multi-purpose facility and will include "a world-class container and industrial port and the development of industrial, logistics, commercial, educational and residential special economic and free trade zones."
KPIZ is scheduled to commence operations in 2012.
