SALALAH, OMAN. ADB SAFEGATE recently executed flight checks as the final step in commissioning the new runway at Salalah International Airport, the second largest airport in the Sultanate of Oman.
Many of today’s airports were constructed and put into operation during the 1960s and 1970s, in a period when jet aircraft were only just being introduced and air travel was booming. The usual way to increase capacity is to look into the construction of additional infrastructure. However, quite often the existing infrastructure is used in an inefficient way and contains hidden and unused capacity. Airports can increase capacity and reduce aircraft fuel burn through the efficient use of airfield ground lighting and advanced visual docking guidance systems.
Sharjah International Airport opened a new Dh500 million runway on Wednesday, 22 October. ADB SAFEGATE was key in the implementation of this project, delivering turnkey project management including design, supply, installation, commissioning and training. Safegate Group lighting, control systems and Instrument Landing System (ILS) navigation-aids were installed. The runway is now equipped to receive large aircraft and new generations of aircraft, including the Boeing 747-800, Airbus A380, and freight planes such as the AN124 and AN225. The runway spans 4,060 meters and is 60 meters wide. It runs parallel to the former runway and includes two taxiways and eight connecting corridors.
Safegate Group is pleased to announce that it has successfully completed the acquisition of Liberty Airport Systems Inc., the North American leader in integrated airfield lighting power and control solutions.
For two days the airport industry came together in Malmo, Sweden, at ADB SAFEGATE Airport Industry Seminar 2014. This was the 6th time ADB SAFEGATE arranged this airport industry event and the theme for the year was efficiency and cooperation. Per-Olof Hammarlund points out the importance of the industry to come together and meet, share their experiences and knowledge and, of course, have a good time with existing and new business colleagues.
