Year: 2023
Overview:
CID Gulf was engaged by Douglas OHI to assess settlement and flooding issues affecting operations at their Lifting Solutions Plant in Salalah. Following a site inspection, CID Gulf identified subsurface failure due to poor fill material and lack of surface drainage, and proposed specialist ground improvement solutions and a high-level drainage system to stabilize operations.
Scope of Work:
Site investigation and assessment of subsurface settlement Root cause analysis: poor compaction and flood water infiltration High-level ground improvement advisory in coordination with specialist contractors Hydrology assessment and preliminary surface drainage layout Optional technical supervision support during execution
Outcome:
CID Gulf delivered a practical and non-invasive advisory strategy, enabling DOHI to stabilize operations while minimizing disruption. The proposed ground improvement and drainage solutions provided a technically sound, cost-effective response to ongoing settlement issues.
