MEGA Construction Projects in the Middle East
Posted on April 4, 2013 at 12:32 PM |

Mega construction projects in the Middle East are once again on the uptick. While many of these mega projects are government funded, there are some that are results of foreign investment. Because of this, the construction industry across the Middle East is experiencing a marked resurgence & economic boom again. I am particularly intrigued by the new economic cities in Saudi being built under the patronage of His Majesty King Abdullah:
But these mega projects are not just happening in Saudi Arabia, they also include the Al Maktoum International Airport, and the Abu Dhabi Islands. There is also an increased interest including tourism, health care, education and renewable energy (which I will be talking about in my next blog!) |
Saudi vs UAE Construction Investment

Clearly, there is a big difference between KSA and UAE; KSA is a much bigger
market and there are many more opportunities there these days. Not only
in terms of size but in terms of growth potential. In the next few
years KSA offers significantly more prospects than any other place in
the world right now, in terms of the construction industry. It is not a market to be ignored by any global construction companies. The
KSA government budget, recently announced, makes the best projects
available in the 1st three months or so after the budget. Thus, right
now is the best time to enter Saudi or ramp-up business development opportunities if there is already a presence in the Kingdom. Basically it doesn't
make any sense for a large scale construction company to not be present
in KSA and be in UAE, where the prospects are comparatively
non-existent, these days. |
