Business Overview The Consolidated Contractors Company specializes in heavy construction and civil engineering for infrastructure, power and industrial sectors. CCC ranked as the largest contractor in the Middle East in terms of revenues, with a year-on-year increase of 86% to USD4.19 billion in 2006. The company also ranked as the 17th largest in the world in terms of scope, with operations in 44 countries and a workforce of 105,000, as of 2006.

CCC was one of the first construction companies in the Arab world, when it was established in 1952. During the Lebanese civil war, it moved its Lebanon-based headquarters to Greece, where it could maintain easy access to European and Asian markets. CCC generates 80% of its revenues from MENA countries and is one of a few in the region capable of carrying out a turnkey oil and gas construction package worth over USD500 million.

The company aims to double its revenues by 2016 by expanding its project development business and focusing on high-profile construction projects such as the USD900 million Karachaganak gas development project in Kazakhstan and the USD700 million Dubai MallDubai Mall to be developed with Dutco Balfour Beatty and others. The expanding project development unit includes investments in the Yemeni GSM operator SabafonSabafon, as well as the joint venture bidding with Japan's Marubeni Corporation and US-based BTU ventures, for the purchase of a 51% stake in the Central Electricity Company (Ceco)Central Electricity Company (Ceco) in Jordan. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.30.196.198 (talk) 08:49, 27 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am looking for consensus to add the significant lawsuit won by Mr. Masri against Consolidated Contractors International Company in the amount of $60 million. More details are found below and can be found at hataf.info

This is a significant event in the history of CCC and it needs to be added. What do others think? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.192.187.105 (talk) 18:42, 28 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In a long standing feud between Munib Masri and Consolidated Contractors Company that resulted in Mr. Masri winning a $55 million judgment against two of CCC's companies, namely CCIC and CCOG, the British Court of Appeals, on April 4, 2008 has denied an appeal by CCC to avoid the appointment of a court appointed receiver to collect the judgment.

Mr. Masri's dispute with CCC is based on an agreement he had with CCC to collect 10% of oil revenues from an oil consession in Yemen. After the intial court ruling in favor of Mr. Masri, CCIC and CCOG refused to pay the judgment of $55 million. The ruling by the British high courts paves the way for monies from the oil concession that CCOG is collecting to go into an approved court appointed bank.

More information about the lawsuit can be found at http://www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWCA/Civ/2008/303.html
