DEME Advances Earthmoving Works For Saudi NEOM Oxagon

Dubai (PlantAndEquipment.com) - Belgium’s DEME Group said it is pushing ahead with dry earthmoving operations for the second phase of Oxagon, part of Saudi Arabia’s $500 billion NEOM development that will house advanced and clean industries.

The works include excavation, grading and soil preparation to support cutter suction dredging, which is scheduled to begin later this year.

The company also said dredging and land reclamation continued in Egypt on the Abu Qir 2 project, supported by hopper and cutter dredgers, while a cutter dredger was deployed in Abu Dhabi.
