Qatar Infrastructure Sector Market Analysis

The infrastructure sector in Qatar is estimated to record a CAGR of greater than 7% during the forecast period.

  • Construction is rising in Qatar, with the government intending to spend more than USD 200 billion as part of a significant infrastructure-building program. It is the state's fastest-growing industry. Under the auspices of Qatar National Vision 2030 (QNV 2030), the sector may continue to dominate economic diversification efforts due to large-scale transportation projects and the rapid growth of tourism, education, and real estate builds. The 2022 FIFA World Cup has set a mid-term deadline for several high-profile projects.
  • In the aftermath of such tremendous development, the industry is facing difficulties. In addition to growing labor, material, and transportation costs, the biggest challenges to steady long-term development are late payments, project delays, and cost overruns. However, the government is making an effort to resolve these problems. Next year, the world's largest exporter of liquefied natural gas plans to spend QAR 90 billion (USD 25 billion) on major projects, a 0.6% increase and the largest share of the overall budget.
  • Despite the difficulties caused by the COVID-19 outbreak, Qatar is still committed to making sustainable investments in infrastructure, technology, education, and healthcare. Qatar has a strong line-up of infrastructure and hospitality projects for the future. While the Ministry of Finance, in partnership with the Public Works Authority (Ashghal), is working to implement a strategic plan by tying specified performance metrics for new projects, Qatar has selected new projects valued at QAR 54 billion (USD 14.83 billion) in the medium term.

Qatar Infrastructure Sector Market Trends

This section covers the major market trends shaping the Qatar Infrastructure Sector Market according to our research experts:

The Government's Focus on the Construction Industry Boosting the Market

Government funding will be critical in aiding the building sector's growth. New projects worth QAR 53.9 billion (USD 14.80 billion) were highlighted in Qatar's 2021 budget. These infrastructure projects are expected to be approved between 2021 and 2023. The government intends to diversify the economy and create infrastructure by reducing its reliance on the oil and gas sector. Qatar has established free zones to diversify its economy, attracting businesses worldwide.

The passage of new legislation governing public-private partnerships (PPPs) will likely encourage the private sector's investment in infrastructure, educational institutions, and healthcare initiatives, hence promoting industrial growth through the forecast period. Investments in transportation infrastructure projects may also support growth during the forecast period. State-run Qatar Railways plans to begin construction of a rail line linking Qatar and Saudi Arabia later this year.

While some of the projects may have long-term consequences, the government currently has several measures in place with immediate advantages. The Qatari government has selected many priority projects for the medium term, with QAR 54 billion (USD 15 billion). Qatar may continue to invest heavily in initiatives that benefit the local economy, according to the Minister of Finance, who also stated that 22 new projects worth QAR 9.8 billion (USD 2.69 billion) will be executed in 2023.

Real Estate Supporting the Construction Industry

Including project handovers in Lusail (Fox Hills and Marina District), The Pearl, Al Dafna, Mirqab Al Jadeed, and Fereej Abdul Aziz, 1,650 units were delivered by The Pearl, Al Dafna, Mirqab Al Jadeed, and Fereej Abdul Aziz.

Residential construction contracts were awarded during the third quarter at Lusail Waterfront, Marina, and Fox Hills, with 450 units projected to be completed by the end of 2022. About 6,300 units were in the pipeline for the remaining quarters of 2021. The total number of properties sold increased by 2.8% in October 2021, while the value of real estate sold increased by 28% over the previous year. The Qatari market is predicted to gain 13,500 residential units by the end of 2022, in addition to the 580 residential units added in the fourth quarter of 2021. Among the most recent constructions are 15 mixed-use buildings in The Pearl, apartment and mixed-use buildings in Qetifan North, 1,700 villas in Furjan Wadi Lusail, Al Yussum townhouses, two in Yasmeen City Lusail, and the Milos apartment complex in Legtafiya.
