CUSTOMER: Ethiad Rail PJSC

MAIN CONTRACTOR: Saipem, Dodsal_Tecnimont JV

AUDIO SYSTEM CONTRACTOR: Fitre S.p.a.


PROJECT: New railway line from Shah to Ruwais via Habshan (264 Km) for freight and commercial traffic, including maintenance and depot facilities.

ASSIGNMENT:  Given the length of the infrastructure and the crossing of desert areas, we have focused on its perfect efficiency: very large repair shops have been positioned at strategic points; efficient fire alarm systems (EVAC); audio systems to guarantee messages and alarms that can be perceived inside the premises, especially in the workshop area due to the greater risk and also the higher background noise level, caused by the heavy work that occurs daily.
We checked compliance with very strict contractor specifications, even in rooms with the highest reverberation and noise. We also carried out mathematical modeling of the larger environments to simulate the values of RASTI and STI parameters in the varoius points of the environments under examination.
