Notes
What this page counts. The developer and EPC contractor roles come from two places: the winners recorded in the contract awards log, on the same basis as the track-record table on the major projects page (for a PPP, BOT, BOO or independent water, power or sewage project the developer or sponsor consortium; for an EPC or works contract the main contractor), and the names in the register’s own Developer and Contractor columns, which also include the EPC contractor a developer appointed. Operator and consultant roles are read from the register’s Operator and Consultant columns, so an operating company set up for one plant, or a public body, is not counted as the firm. A developer, contractor or operator named on a project still at the planning or tender stage is not counted (a consultant is, as it is appointed first), and equipment suppliers and subcontractors are left out.
Values. The value is the cost of the whole project as the register records it, not the firm’s share or revenue, and a consortium project is shown in full for each member. A dash means no published value. The register is a list of major schemes and of the awards the site has logged, so a firm’s page is a track record across what the site follows, not a market census and not a complete record of the firm.
Names counted together. The register counts these spellings and group companies as this firm: Orascom; Orascom Construction Industries. The evidence for each merge is kept with the register.
Listing. Exchange and ticker as stated on the firm’s own website (Orascom Construction, Investors page (orascom.com/investors/): ticker ORAS, Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (primary) and Egyptian Exchange (secondary). The About page (orascom.com/about/) instead names NASDAQ Dubai and the EGX as its listings, so the UAE venue is not named on this site), read on 19 October 2026.
Website. This page does not link to the firm’s website.
Not on this page. No logo, no revenue, no ranking. Where the same name belongs to a group, this page does not follow the group’s other companies unless the register does.
