Lima's Jorge Chavez
International Airport

One of the main on-going jobs in the airport field is the supervision and control of the expansion of Lima's Jorge Chavez International Airport. The assignment includes reviewing the existing engineering design, providing construction supervision services and ensuring adequate economic control of the investments.

The concession for the construction of the airport expansion was awarded to the Lima Partners Consortium, formed by Frankfurt Airport, Bechtel and Cosapi. The enlargement works will allow increasing from the early 2001 2.2 million passengers per year to the 7.2 million passengers projected for three years into the concession period and a final forecast of 18 million passengers at the end of the concession period.
