The first phase of the project will be a 270-kilometre cargo rail line connecting Abu Dhabi?s Shah sour gas field to Ruwais on the Gulf coast, to transport granulated sulfur for export.
This week the railway is going to open pre-qualification documents for the major engineering, procurement and construction contract covering that route, and the project is working on pre-qualification of bidders for the Shah-Habshan line construction project.
