The objective of this project is to:

♦ Develop a Centralized Industrial Area, easily accessible by land (on the Island) and sea, with all the required facilities to confine fabrication, maintenance, repair, blasting, painting etc. by MRO, MRL, QP Maintenance Departments and Contractors, so that the rest of the Island is free from environmental pollution and safety hazards arising  from such activities.

Also it is proposed to centralize contractor’s project site offices and stores.  The objective of this project is the provision of Additional Helipads at the existing   Parking Apron, due to the increased operation of helicopters, and to suffice the requirements of Sikorsky S-92 class helicopters operated by Gulf Helicopters, in addition to the existing civil helicopter types, abiding to the Guidelines laid down by the International Civil Aviation Authority (ICAO), ICAO Heliport Manuals.
