Additionally, AlMansoori has developed an integrated project services division to ensure that clients who may use more than one of AlMansoori's skills experience seamless project management.
Although the company's activities are predominantly based in the Middle East, it is continually expanding its operations in North Africa, Far East and South East Asia as well as North America and the North Sea region through a number of acquisitions and joint ventures with a number of internationally recognized companies.
