Abstract

Jubail Industrial City is the largest civil engineering project in the world today. It is the largest industrial city in the world. Jubail was a fishing village until 1975. The government then decided to build the Jubail Industrial city. The first part of the megaproject termed Jubail I was initiated in the mid-1970s in the Eastern province of Saudi Arabia on the Persian Gulf. It included construction of facilities such as steel mill, petrochemical plants and refinery. Jubail I is a classic example for urban planning with dozen shopping centers and schools. Jubail has the largest combined desalination and power plant in the world. Jubail II is located about 8 kilometers west of Jubail I. Jubail II consists of an 83 km2 industrial development in the city of Jubail, 490 km northeast of Riyadh. The project was initiated in the year 2005. The new development when completed is expected to double the population of the city. The construction is spread over 22 years in four phases. The project is aimed to double the size of the Jubail Industrial city by approximately 6200 ha. The cost of construction of Jubail industrial city is estimated to be $18 billion dollars.
