Yenkit & Al Harathy Coastal Resilience and Fish Landing Facilities
Client: Yiti Tourism Development Company (via Sarooj Construction Company LLC)
Sector: Advisory Solutions
Location: Muscat Governorate, Oman
Year: 2020
Overview:
CID Gulf was engaged as the strategic advisor and design consultant for the development of resilient fish landing facilities at Al Harathy and Yenkit. The project involved sensitive coastal zones where natural estuary dynamics, local hydrology, and community interventions required careful assessment. CID Gulf’s scope began with early-stage technical advisory and survey strategy and progressed into full multidisciplinary design under a design-and-build contract with Sarooj Construction.
Advisory Scope Highlights:
Assessment of flood risk, catchment behavior, and estuary dynamics Topographic and bathymetric survey strategy definition for sensitive marine and mountain-edge interfaces Coordination with Ministry of Agriculture & Fisheries and local stakeholders Recommendations for coastal protection, bund placement, and flow diversion Support for environmental and permitting strategy (EIA timeline planning)
Design Scope Highlights:
Architectural, structural, civil, and MEP design for fish net storage facilities and support infrastructure Detailed hydraulic design for Irish crossings, drainage bunds, and discharge channels Integration of topo/bathy data and coordination with geotechnical and infrastructure inputs Final IFC documentation and authority submission packages Collaboration with NEO for design review and site supervision interface
Outcome:
CID Gulf’s involvement ensured a resilient, functional, and context-sensitive coastal solution that responded to both environmental and community needs.
The project demonstrates CID Gulf’s ability to bridge advisory insight with full technical delivery under fast-track frameworks.
