Our first project in Qatar, we certainly began big and quickly established our reputation for excellence and innovation.
Formerly known as the Barwa Financial District, the QP District project consists of nine towers, one hotel and an energy centre.
Situated in the new West Bay business district of the capital, Doha, the QP District is a gigantic commercial development project located on a plot of 7 hectares. With the nine towers mainly consisting of office space, a number of restaurants and shops located on the ground floor, which will be of benefit to the occupants who will be keen to avoid the sky high temperatures during the summer months.
WJ designed, installed and operated a dewatering system for the 250 m x 300 m excavation, with a total perimeter of 1,100m. The plot is supported by contiguous piles and in places the excavation reached 20 m below ground level. A perimeter system reduced the risk of the dewatering interfering with the piling and excavation.
The success of the project provided a solid foundation for WJ Qatar, and we went on to build one of the leading dewatering businesses in the country, undertaking major projects for the metro, airport and sports and tourist infrastructure in the run up to the FIFA World Cup in 2022.
