According to "Dunya", Turkish contracting company AGS won the contract
for the USD 34 million Sulaimaniya Airport construction project. The
contract between AGS and the regional government in Sulaimaniya was
signed earlier this week. According to the USD 34 million contract, AGS
will build two 3,500 meter runways, taxiways, administrative buildings,
service buildings, control tower, electronics and approach facilities.
The terminal building will be finished by late May while the rest of the
airport construction will be completed in eight months. AGS, subsidiary
of Turkish contracting company AGE based in Ankara, said in a statement
it is extremely pleased with the new airport contract and will now
concentrate its efforts to expand its base in Sulaimaniya and Erbil
where it has offices. In Erbil, AGS is negotiating the construction of
student dormitories worth $20 million. The same company had already won
the USD 4.2 million contract for the construction of the airport
terminal building three months ago.
