总部位于旧金山的贝克特尔组成的一个财团,Turkey’s Enka Construction Co. and Oman’s Bahwan Engineering Company LLC has been awarded a $1.8-billion contract to build a 360,000-square-meter passenger terminal complex at Muscat International Airport in Oman. Scheduled for completion in 2014, the terminal is the largest project ever undertaken in Oman. The effort is part of a strategic government initiative to develop the country into a tourist destination.

Designed by COWI-Larsen JV of Denmark, the state-of-the-art terminal will have the capacity to handle 12 million passengers per year and will be able to accommodate future expansion. ADPI Designers & Planners, a fully owned subsidiary of Aeroports de Paris Group, is the project management consultant.

总部位于阿曼的Galfar工程和签约，印度的Larsen＆Toubro（L＆T）正在阿曼第二大城市萨拉拉（Salalah）的机场开发一个新码头。Cowi是与Larsen建筑师和哥本哈根机场的合资企业，是主要顾问，ADPI担任项目管理顾问。

Estimated at $765 million, Salalah's 65,600-sq-m terminal is expected to accommodate one million passengers by 2014. The project calls for a passenger building, air-traffic control tower, and ancillary structures, along with a new four km-long runway. A cargo terminal capable of handling up to 100,000 tons of freight per year will also be constructed.

In Egypt, Limak-GMR Joint Venture Group won a contract in April to renovate and enlarge Terminal 2 of Cairo International Airport, a project being funded by the World Bank. Limak-GMR, established by Turkey-based Limak Insaat Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S. and India-based GMR Group, submitted the lowest bid, at $387 million. Cairo-based Engineering Consultants Group S.A., is the lead consultant for the renovation program, which encompasses master planning, design and construction management. The revamped terminal is scheduled to reopen in 2014.

Accommodating Airbus Planes

The project will double passenger capacity — to 7.5 million per year — and will enable the airport to serve Airbus 380 planes, which carry up to 525 people. The terminal building will be the first green airport to be developed in the Middle East North Africa region. “The project symbolizes the restoration of stability and trust in Egypt after a difficult period,” Harun İyidi, a member of Limak’s executive board, told the Turkish press. “It will open the gates of Cairo to the world and make a significant contribution to the country’s economy.”

123,000平方米的航站楼将设有新的登机厅和出发大厅，14个大门，零售空间，带14个接触架的码头和带有18个停车位的Airside Pier。合同还包括机电工程和行李处理系统。

Following Oman and Egypt’s lead, Dubai Airports in early June announced expansion plans to significantly increase passenger capacity at Dubai International Airport and Al Maktoum International Airport to over 90 million per annum by 2020 at a cost of $5.98 billion. In June, the Dubai Aviation City Corporation invited contractors to submit prequalification documents for the multi-phased addition and refurbishment of Terminal 2 at Dubai International Airport.

同样，穆哈拉克（Muharraq）的巴林国际机场（Bahrain International Airport）于6月28日宣布，它已经与达尔·汉达萨（Dar al Handasah）签订了1160万美元的合同，即扩展项目的设计阶段，预计将需要9个月才能完成。巴林计划在扩张上花费3.35亿美元，这将在2015年将年产能增加50％，至1.35亿。
