MEED magazine highlights these trends, shedding light on the sector&#8217;s journey from the highs of 2020-2021 to the challenges faced in 2022, reported Al-Rai Daily.<\/p>\n<p>Between 2014 and 2016, Kuwait witnessed a surge in contract awards in the construction and transportation sectors, totaling around $27 billion. However, the political deadlock between legislative and executive authorities, along with disrupted decision-making processes, has brought about a distinct change in the landscape.<\/p>\n<p>The magazine reports that after consecutive years of positive growth in 2020 and 2021, overall project activity has notably receded. This decline, amounting to approximately 40% in 2022, led to a reduced project market worth of nearly $1.7 billion due to fewer projects being awarded.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, 2023 holds potential for the sectors to rebound. Currently, Kuwait boasts planned transportation projects valued at approximately $28 billion. These projects comprise contracts worth $22.9 billion in their early stages, projects totaling $2.3 billion in the design phase, and contracts amounting to $2.8 billion in the bidding stage.<\/p>\n<p>In the combined construction and transportation sectors, projects worth $4.7 billion have advanced past the pre-qualification stage and are now either in the bid submission or evaluation stages. The potential awarding of contracts, even at half this value, could make 2023 a remarkable year for contractors, potentially surpassing the successes of 2018.<\/p>\n<p>However, the realization of these prospects hinges on the resumption of major plans, contingent on National Assembly approval. The challenge lies in the fact that a substantial portion of the value is concentrated in extensive projects.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, construction emerged as the second-largest project sector, with roughly $627 million in awarded contracts. In 2023, contract volumes have reached approximately $440 million, indicating a trajectory akin to the previous year. Yet, these figures fall significantly short of the average annual awards of $1.8 billion witnessed between 2018 and 2022, or the preceding five-year average expenditure of $4 billion.<\/p>\n<p>The construction sector mirrors the broader trend of reduced public spending on projects due to internal political conflicts over expenditure and debt. As a result, a considerable backlog of construction projects awaits awards, amounting to around $22.9 billion. Among these, projects worth $8.7 billion are under study, $6.6 billion are in the design phase, and $7.6 billion are in the bidding stage.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, the transportation sector emerged as the powerhouse of project activity in 2022, with contracts exceeding $1 billion, surpassing the average annual total of $800 million observed between 2018 and 2022.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, Kuwait&#8217;s construction and transportation sectors navigate a dynamic landscape influenced by political tensions and economic challenges. The year 2023 holds promise, contingent on major projects&#8217; realization and the resolution of political barriers. While facing uncertainties, these sectors remain essential drivers of Kuwait&#8217;s future infrastructure growth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In recent years, Kuwait&#8217;s construction and transportation sectors have experienced significant fluctuations, shaped by political impasses and shifting project dynamics.
