Erhama Bin Jaber, Al Jalahma Shipyard

Located 80km north of Doha, the shipyard is part of the 56km² purpose-built industrial city. This new facility is designed for the maintenance, conversion, and construction of large and specialist ships. A joint venture between Nakilat and Damen Shipyards, it hosts world-class, end-to-end construction and maintenance programmes within one of the largest fully covered construction areas globally.

Our team conducted an initial civil site inspection, focusing on two dry docks, underground substations, pump houses and process warehouses. We provided strategic advice on construction documentation, testing methodologies, independent reporting, financial planning, budgeting, and site supervision. Additionally, we carried out an independent structural assessment of key civil elements and offered ad-hoc support on architectural finishes, structural steelwork design modifications, and building services serviceability.

Gary Dodds, Country Director - Qatar commented "Cundall is proud to be part of this project - one of the world’s largest state-of-the-art facilities. Under a long-term framework agreement, our team worked closely with the client to ensure flexibility in civil and structural maintenance."
