Chinese companies deepen Middle East footprint
CRCC launches Dubai hangar project
On May 18, the Emirates Engineering aircraft maintenance hangar project, undertaken by China Railway Construction Corporation (CRCC), officially broke ground in Dubai.
Located in the Dubai World Central area, the project has a total investment of more than USD 5 billion and is scheduled for completion in 2030. It includes the construction of large maintenance hangars, paint hangars, and supporting facilities. Once completed, it will provide wide-body aircraft with full-process services, including maintenance, repair, and overhaul, engine maintenance, and painting.
CRCC said the project is an important example of Belt and Road cooperation between China and the Middle East. It will support the entry of Chinese construction into the Middle East’s high-end infrastructure market and help deepen China-Arab industrial capacity cooperation.
