Pioneer Camp Design and Construction

Arkel was responsible for the design and construction of the Pioneer Camp on the Majnoon Oil Field near Basra, Iraq. The camp consisted of 80 single client rooms and a mixture of double and quad units for the Operations & Maintenance contractor. Total occupancy of the camp is 200 people. Arkel installed all of the utility and infrastructure systems including power generation, fuel storage, water storage/supply, sewer, IT/Comms, security and access control. We constructed support buildings for the operations of the camp including kitchen/dining, recreational, security, medical clinic, access control, maintenance, laundry, and a 70 person office building. The dining and office building was protected by an overhead protection structure to resist any incoming mortar and rocket fire.
