Project Information
Since 2013, AKTOR FM is responsible for the provision of Facility Management services to a series of major facilities of Hamad International Airport in Doha, Qatar.
In particular, the company is responsible for the provision of comprehensive Maintenance Support for the Facility Management (Soft & Hard FM Services) of the Aircraft Maintenance Hangar Complex, Duty Free Warehouses, Consolidated Car Rental Facility and Airport Staff Access Control of the Hamad International Airport.
Hamad International Airport (HIA) is a state-of-the-art aviation project which occupies an area of 22 square kilometers in the Arabian Peninsula. Its Main Terminal is the largest building in Doha while the Aircraft Maintenance Hangar Complex, constructed by AKTOR, serves as the central maintenance hub for Qatar Airways’ international fleet, being one of the largest free span hangars in the world.
More specifically, with a total footprint of 168,000 m2, the main Aircraft Maintenance Hangar Complex constitutes an innovative construction on a global scale, standing at 500m long, 200m wide and 45m high.
It contains 24,000 tons of steel and consists of two fully air-conditioned, heavy and light aircraft maintenance areas, with fixed special equipment and two-story workshops, as well as a number of technical and administrative office areas. Special cutting-edge systems along with auxiliary and utility buildings, infrastructure, parking, roads and underground services facilitate the maintenance of the aircrafts. The facility is able to accommodate up to 14 aircrafts simultaneously, including the Airbus A380, Airbus 350 and Boeing 787.
The Hangar Complex is complemented by two smaller hangars, that occupy an area of 30,000 m2 and are able accommodate up to 7 aircrafts at the same time. To prevent overheating from prolonged exposure to the extreme exterior temperature, the facilities use a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system, capable of maintaining a constant internal temperature of 26°C.
Within the service framework, AKTOR FM provides to the abovementioned Aircraft Maintenance Hangars preventive, corrective and predictive maintenance, cleaning, security and waste management services as well as condition-based monitoring and help desk function on a 24/7/365 basis. With regard to Duty Free warehouses, Consolidated Car Rental Facility and Airport Staff Access Control, AKTOR FM provides the abovementioned services combined with waste management services and landscaping.
