Hill International Receives Extension of Claims Assignment for Dubai Airports

  
    
  
  
    
      Hill International (Nasdaq:HINT), the worldwide construction consulting 
      firm, announced today that its contract with the Government of Dubai’s 
      Department of Civil Aviation (DCA) has been extended to provide claims 
      and contract advisory services in connection with all DCA projects at 
      Dubai International Airport (DXB) and the new Dubai World Central 
      International Airport (JXB) located in the Jebel Ali region of Dubai. 
      The extended contract, which is scheduled to continue throughout the DXB 
      and JXB expansion programs, has an estimated value to Hill of 
      approximately AED 40 million ($10.9 million) over the next three years.
    
    
      Hill commenced its role with DCA in March 2005 providing claims 
      management services with respect to the DXB Concourse 2 / Terminal 3 
      project. In line with DCA’s expanding project 
      portfolio, Hill’s role has likewise been 
      expanded to include all other DXB Phase II expansion projects and the 
      new Dubai World Central International Airport (JXB) which is planned to 
      be one of the largest capacity airports in the world.
    
    
      Dubai World Central International Airport (JXB) will be at the heart of 
      Dubai World Central, an aviation focused residential, commercial and 
      logistics program planned by the Government of Dubai. The airport will 
      be the world’s largest passenger and cargo hub 
      with a designed capacity of over 12 million tons of cargo a year and in 
      excess of 120 million passengers annually and capable of handling all 
      new generation aircraft, including the A380 superjumbo. This new 
      facility will have six parallel runways, a 92-meter high control tower 
      (the highest in the Middle East), three terminals and will be ten times 
      the size of the current Dubai International Airport (DXB) and Dubai 
      Cargo Village combined.
    
    
      “DCA is a very important client to Hill 
      International and we are honored that they have extended Hill’s 
      services to include these world-class projects,” 
      said Bill Kennedy, Vice President and Executive Director in charge of 
      Hill’s construction claims operations in Dubai.
    
    
      Hill International, with 1,500 employees in 70 offices worldwide, 
      provides program management, project management, construction 
      management, and construction claims services. Engineering News-Record magazine
