Mammoet has been awarded a contract by the The Red Sea Development Company (TRSDC) to transport and install 73 prefabricated villas at the Sheybarah Island Resort, a part of the Red Sea Project in Saudi Arabia.
The Sheybarah hotel is a 73-key hyper luxury resort on Sheybarah island; located in the south east of the archipelago on the Red Sea. The island is home to a highly diverse environment with mangroves, white sand dune beaches and some of the most beautiful and pristine coral reefs in the world hosting many species of fish and other marine animals.
The resort, designed by Dubai-based architectural firm Killa Design, comprises uniquely shaped overwater and beach villas, arrival, front of house and F&B buildings and other facilities. The approach to the façade design was to minimize visual impact of the architecture on the environment by employing a highly reflective polished stainless steel cladding that reflects the natural surroundings: the ocean, the sky, sand dunes and the reef below.Â
The villas are being manufactured offsite by metal production specialist Grankraft Industries in Sharjah, UAE. Under the scope of the contract, Mammoet is commissioned to deliver the prefabricated villas from Grankraft’s yard to the site and install them onto their foundations: on the beach and over water.
