In partnership with Bechtel Enka Joint Venture (BEJV), SAS International has been involved in advising and training contractors on-site since the new build began in 2011. Over 15 SAS designers have worked on the project to meet the design brief of architects COWI \u2013 Larsen & Hill International.<\/p>\n

The extraordinary project has required complex designs, bespoke architectural metalwork and a new micro perforation for acoustic control. Over 140,000m\u00b2 of SAS products have been installed on the project including cargo terminals, concourse, ancillary buildings, escalators and the airport hotel.<\/p>\n

The mammoth project has some impressive stats and facts to offer:<\/p>\n

97m high, the air traffic control tower is the tallest manmade structure in Oman.<\/p>\n

There will be 96 check-in counters with the capacity to process 12 million passengers annually.<\/p>\n

The airport will be capable of landing the new A380 Air Bus.<\/p>\n

The gross area of the airport building is 345,000m\u00b2.<\/p>\n

Click here to get a sneak preview of the project during a visit by the Omani Council of Ministers. An opening ceremony for the North Pier of the airport will take place in September 2017.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
