A complete analysis and overview of the opportunities, challenges and forecasts for the UAE projects market

UAE is now showing signs of emerging once again as one of the leading projects markets in the region. In the first five months of the year, $13.5bn worth of contracts have been awarded in the federation, making it the second largest market in the GCC after Saudi Arabia. Leading the way has been offshore investment, with the biggest contract being the $3.75bn contract to expand production at the Upper Zakum field.

As the opportunities and spending grows, contractors and suppliers alike are again looking at the UAE as a serious growth market. This will especially be the case if Dubai wins the rights to host the 2020 World Expo which will act as a real further catalyst for investment.
