International ground engineering specialist Keller Group has secured a major contract worth £28m at Singapore’s Changi Airport.

Keller will carry out land vibrocompaction ahead of a major airport expansion. Work on the project will start this month and is expected to be completed in mid-2016.

Keller CEO Justin Atkinson said: "This contract award reflects both the group’s excellent track record using vibrocompaction in Singapore and extensive experience in similar airport construction projects around the world, including previously at Changi."

Project Jewel will cover a total gross floor area of approximately 134,000m² and will involve the construction of a glass and steel dome-shaped space that will feature airport operations, hotel facilities, indoor gardens and retail stores. It will also feature an indoor waterfall that will pour from the roof of the dome.

The airport recently broke ground on the £726m terminal project, which is a joint venture between the Changi Airport Group (CAG) and CapitaMalls Asia, CapitaLand’s shopping mall division.
