FEBRUARY 2024 Ӏ JOB OF THE MONTH


Schiedam, The Netherlands- headquartered heavy lifting and transport specialist Mammoet has completed its scope for the Sheybarah Island resort in collaboration with developer Red Sea Global. The project, part of regenerative tourism endeavour ‘The Red Sea destination’, has achieved a significant milestone with the installation of the last villa on Sheybarah Island. This marks the conclusion of a journey that commenced with the signing of the contract in May 2022. Mammoet’s scope involved the transportation and installation of


73 prefabricated villa orbs from Sharjah, United Arab Emirates, to Sheybarah Island in the Saudi Red Sea. From the initial contract award, Mammoet oversaw the complete factory- to-foundation process.


This included the use of tailor-made solutions including the deployment of a 650 tonne capacity Demag CC3800 crawler crane on Mammoet’s modified barge, ALE 250. The shallow draft of the barge, coupled with a retrofitted 300 tonne spud jacking system from Mammoet's partner Combifloat, ensured minimal disruption to the delicate marine environment


during the installation process, the company says. Precision engineering, hyper-accurate GPS systems, and locally controlled jacking mechanisms contributed to the exact placement of the overwater villas onto their foundations, it adds.


Jack van den Brink, managing director


for Mammoet Middle East and Africa, says, "We are proud to have played a pivotal role in bringing RSG's vision to life. We remain committed to delivering excellence in every project, in this case contributing to the creation of the world's most spectacular and sustainable hotels."
