Ali Saleh AL-Ismail

The construction project experience was gained mainly from the involvement in two Saudi Aramco Mega Projects, namely: Manifa oil field Projects and SPARK Projects. My role in Manifa projects was to participate in the design and construction of a 25 km long causeway connecting the oil-field production islands with the main on-shore processing facilities. Besides this task, I was leading the construction of two highway bridges with its access roads to connect the oil production field to the government highway. For SPARK Projects. I was assigned to lead the expansion of 13 km of the existing highway from a single lane in each direction into two lanes and construct a new fly-over bridge to serve as the main access road.

Currently, I am a PIF Confidential Subsidiary employee playing the role of Senior Project Manager. I handle early work projects for highly sophisticated tourism projects including geotechnical investigation of natural ground, building new access roads, and constructing cable cranes. My participation involves problem-solving, permit securing, leading progress meetings, reviewing and approving invoices, and initiating and managing variation orders.
