The development of the airport is the largest project to ever be undertaken in the history of Oman.?The existing airport which was designed back in 1973 has now reached its maximum capacity and the design of the new airport aims to meet the nation's passenger growth numbers.? The new terminal is due to be completed by 2014 and will have the capacity to handle 12 million passengers annually, with future expansion plans already in the pipeline to eventually accommodate 48 million passengers.

Gareth Frankland CEO of ACDC said: "This project represents a landmark opportunity for ACDC. It has taken a lot of hard work and a long time to reach this point but it's finally paid off and it's fantastic news".
