State-owned China Railway Tunnel Group has entered into a strategic collaboration with Advanced Pipes and Casts Co, a subsidiary of Qatari conglomerate Aamal Co, according to the South China Morning Post.
The two companies signed a memorandum of understanding covering infrastructure development, focused on building railway tunnels and establishing associated supply chain operations across Qatar and the wider Gulf region.
The initiative connects to ongoing regional transit projects, including a planned 785-kilometre high-speed railway connecting Doha with Riyadh, which is scheduled for completion within six years. Additionally, Qatar is taking part in the planned 2,177-kilometre Gulf Railway network involving six Middle Eastern countries, slated for operational rollout by 2030.
