The Doha West Bay Lagoon development comprises the creation of an inland tidal lagoon in a low-lying coastal area 8km north of the city of Doha.

Prestigious residential plots will be developed around the perimeter of the lagoon, complimented by a marina and commercial developments on the adjacent nearshore reclamation area.

Key factors

	Mathematical modelling of lagoon to ensure adequate self-flushing characteristic.
	Design of revetments, training walls, breakwaters and artificial beaches
	Marina planning and design
	Separate vessel fuelling station, including blockwork quay walls
	Environmental study comprising initial environmental evaluation (IEE), and follow-up review including hydrogeological study of potential for pollution from groundwater sources
