Cavotec Middle East, the UAE based subsidiary of global engineering group Cavotec MSL, has won its second major contract with the New Muscat International Airport. Cavotec has been selected to supply Cavotec Dabico fuel hydrant pits to be deployed across the development.

The New Muscat International Airport project which is currently underway in Seeb will have a new fuel farm with a hydrant pipeline apart from other apron services such as 400Hz and preconditioned air pop up pits which has already been awarded to Cavotec last year under an AED 15 million contract.

The generous capacity of the DAB24 hydrant pit which offers more volume for liquid in cases of spillage, the easy opening cover as well as water and sand-proof sealing provided on the Cavotec pit proved decisive during the evaluation and final selection process. The DAB 24 can be partially opened to connect with dispenser vehicles the cover is also fully removable.

Mr Juergen Strommer MD of Cavotec Middle East said that “We are very proud to have been chosen by the two separate contractors for different airport utility solutions to be implemented in the same airport development, first by Bahwan Group and now by Amana Pipeline Construction who are building the fuel hydrant package in Muscat. This new order reaffirms Cavotec’s reputation as a leading supplier of advanced equipment and end to end solutions in both regional and global aviation industries which now also encompasses aviation fueling systems through the firm’s manufacturing facilities in the UK, Germany and the US.
