Hassan Allam Holding, a privately owned engineering and construction giant led by Egyptian businessman Hassan Allam, has won a major contract to develop key water and wastewater infrastructure in Muscat, Oman.
The project, awarded to its subsidiary Hassan Allam Construction by the Oman Water and Wastewater Services Company, highlights the company’s expanding presence in international infrastructure projects.
Boosting Muscat’s water and wastewater capacity
The project covers large-scale networks designed to meet the needs of Muscat’s rapidly expanding population. According to Hassan Allam Holding, the scope includes wastewater and water pipelines, pumping and lifting stations, reservoirs, transmission and distribution systems, and advanced utility works.
These facilities are expected to enhance urban resilience, provide essential services to local communities, and support Oman’s sustainable growth strategy. “This milestone reflects our commitment to building sustainable utilities that improve quality of life and strengthen urban resilience across the MENA region,” the company said in a statement.
Hassan Allam expands Middle East operations
Founded in 1936, Hassan Allam Holding has grown into one of MENA’s leading contractors. With a $6 billion project backlog, the company operates across energy, logistics, water, and industrial development. Under the leadership of Hassan and Amr Allam, it has delivered more than 12 million square meters of construction projects, cementing its reputation as a key contributor to regional infrastructure.
The company’s recent Muscat contract underscores its expanding footprint across the Middle East and North Africa, building on earlier projects in Egypt and other markets. The deal reflects Hassan Allam’s standing as a trusted partner for governments and institutions seeking large-scale, sustainable infrastructure solutions.
Expanding infrastructure across Middle East
Hassan Allam Holding has also been active in strategic partnerships and domestic development projects. Earlier this year, its subsidiary joined The Arab Contractors to modernize Alexandria’s historic Raml Tram, reducing travel times across the city. In July, the group partnered with Schneider Electric to launch a solar-powered smart agriculture project in Egypt’s Nile Delta, supporting both food security and clean energy.
In May, the company raised EGP2.8 billion ($57.7 million) to fund Bab Masr, a greenfield mixed-use project in Cairo. Together, these initiatives show Hassan Allam Holding’s diverse approach to infrastructure, transport, energy, and real estate development across North Africa and the Middle East. With the Oman contract, the company continues to strengthen its role as a leading construction and engineering firm shaping the region’s infrastructure.
