Majnoon Bridge Gate Project
ECD successfully undertook the full design, engineering, fabrication, and construction of the main gate structure at the Majnoon Oilfield Bridge. The project aimed to deliver a modern, durable, and visually striking gateway that reflects the importance of the Majnoon field and enhances its overall identity.
The scope of work covered conceptual and detailed engineering, architectural modeling, structural design, and complete fabrication and installation of steel and cladding components. All materials were carefully selected to withstand the harsh climatic conditions of the southern Iraqi oilfields, including extreme heat, humidity, and corrosive environments. High-grade protective coatings, industrial-grade fasteners, and reinforced structural members were used to ensure long-term stability and minimal maintenance.
The final structure provides a high-quality aesthetic, seamless integration with existing facilities, and a durable landmark that strengthens the visual presence of the field infrastructure. This project showcases ECD’s strong capabilities in civil, structural, architectural, and fabrication works, particularly in high-demand operational environments.

Benefits of Project
The Majnoon Bridge Gate Project delivered significant operational and visual improvements to the Majnoon Oilfield entrance. By integrating modern architectural design with durable structural engineering, the project enhanced both the functionality and identity of the field. The new gate serves as a landmark structure that supports safer access control, improves the organization of vehicle movement, and strengthens the overall image of the site. Additionally, the use of high-quality materials and protective systems ensures long-term reliability with minimal maintenance.
Key Benefits
Enhanced field identity and stronger visual impact, creating a recognizable and professional entrance to the oilfield.
Durable structure designed for harsh environmental conditions, including heat, humidity, and corrosive atmospheres.
High-quality fabrication and precise installation, ensuring perfect alignment, stability, and long service life.
Improved entrance safety and traffic organization, supporting better control of personnel and vehicle access.
Modern architectural design, adding aesthetic value and contributing to a more professional site appearance.
Low maintenance requirements, thanks to advanced coatings and corrosion-resistant materials.
The Challenge Of Project
The project required the installation of a large architectural steel structure in a high-traffic oilfield zone, demanding strict safety control and logistical planning.
Key challenges included:
Ensuring safe and precise lifting of heavy steel components.
Maintaining exact structural alignment during installation.
Working within tight schedules imposed by operational constraints in the oilfield.
Managing coordination with multiple stakeholders, including client operations and field safety teams.
Overcoming environmental challenges such as heat, humidity, and high wind conditions.
Despite these challenges, ECD successfully delivered the project to international quality and safety standards, achieving a landmark structure fully integrated within the Majnoon field infrastructure.
