Eight in for Khalifa
01 Apr 2007
Eight consortia have sought prequalification to bid for the Khalifa and Industrial Zone project, with initial infrastructure work scheduled to commence by mid-year, claims Abu Dhabi Port Company.
The eventual contract will be worth $1.5bn and the first vessel is scheduled to call at the port in September 2009.
The offshore development will be connected to the mainland by a 4.5 km causeway. In its initial phase, the port will have a capacity of 2m teu, increasing to 8m teu by 2015.
