Contract Signing

Manufacturing and Installing Shelter Tents in Informal
Settlements in Raqq

On January 30, 2024, our company, Hamza Abbas, signed a
contract with a non-governmental organization for the manufacturing and
installation of 123 shelter tents.

Allow me to provide a detailed explanation of the required
tent structure, designed to withstand both vertical and lateral loads:

Tent Structure Components

Metal Tent Pegs

These pegs are utilized to assist in maintaining the

shape of the tent and securing it in place against strong
winds.

Thermal Wool Blanket

This blanket serves as an effective thermal insulator
for the tent’s surfaces.

Canvas Tarpaulin

This waterproof material is used to shield the tent’s
surfaces from water.

Gutter

The gutter is installed to prevent water leakage and provide minimal thermal
insulation for both the surfaces and sides of the tent.

12mm Thick Rope

This sturdy rope is employed to securely fasten the layers of the tent in
their designated positions.

Binding Wire

The binding wire is used for structural connections and fastening purposes.

Tent Manufacturing

We have meticulously manufactured the required tents,
strictly adhering to the

specified technical specifications.

Tent Installation

These tents have been successfully installed in informal
settlements within a maximum distance of 50 kilometers from the city of Raqqa,
in locations that were carefully coordinated with the supervisory body
established by the organization.

Project Completion and Company Pride As Hamza Abbas Company, we take great pride in the
execution of such projects, as they cater to the needs of a specific segment of
society, alleviating their burdens.

Drilling and Equipping Wells in Southern Amuda district

Project Background and Tender Process
Due to the severe water shortage in Al-Hasakah city, one of the concerned parties proposed the idea of a marine wells project to provide water for the city.

After conducting geological surveys and determining the drilling depths to reach seawater and ensure its suitability for drinking after treatment, the project idea was adopted, and a tender was launched to select the company to implement the project.

Our company, Hamza Abbas, scored the highest points for implementing this project based on several criteria: financial proposal, type of required excavator, other necessary equipment, and previous experiences.

Contract Signing
On 21/11/2023, the supporting party signed a contract with our company, Hamza Abbas, to drill, equip, and isolate a group of wells in southern Amuda district in order to obtain potable water to irrigate Al-Hasakah city.

I will provide a detailed explanation of the process we followed in the work:

First: Team Preparation
Preparing a team consisting of specialized engineers (civil, survey, laboratory) and experienced workers in the field of drilling wells and assistant workers.

Second: Project Review and Coordination
Our company’s engineering team reviewed the tender documents and technical specifications of the project and visited the drilling site to coordinate with the supervisory body appointed by the supporting party to determine the work procedures to be followed and to develop a timeline for implementing the work.

Third: Commencement of Work
On 18/2/2024, work began, where our company’s survey engineer coordinated with the project’s supporting party engineer to determine the coordinates of the first well.

Steps of well drilling:
1- Cleaning the well site, removing all obstacles, leveling the site with suitable machinery, and giving the site a slope for surface water drainage.
2- Implementing a reinforced concrete pour to protect the wellhead.
3- Commencing drilling operations.
4- Applying protection: Metal casing with a diameter of 18 inches and a thickness of 4 mm of helical type.
5- Applying insulation: Made of rust-free, smooth steel
6- Injecting sulfur-resistant cement grout between the well wall and the insulation using drilling rig compressors.
7- Final lining: Spirally wound and perforated steel plates with artistic patterns on the plunger.
8- Taking geological samples every 10 meters and whenever the layer changes, drying the sample, placing it in transparent nylon bags, numbering them according to their depths, and drawing the lithological column based on the samples taken.

Fourth: Submitting a file for each well containing:

1-Soil samples.

2-Detailed report on drilling operations (drilling diameter, protection, insulation, and final lining diameters and thicknesses, well lithological column).

3-Detailed report on pumping test results (flow rate, static level, dynamic level, test depth).

Elevations of Drilled and Perforated Plungers
We, Hamza Abbas Company, are proud to implement this major project for the first time in the region, recognizing its significant service importance to the region’s residents.

In doing so, we have enhanced the experience and capabilities of our company in implementing large-scale service projects.
