Question ID: 753076
Are there currently any acoustical engineering consulting companies
with personnel based in the United Arab Emirates, Qatar or Oman?

Please list the names and locations (in the above countries) of any
companies found.

Acoustical engineering consultants generally provide advice on
environmental noise, transportation noise, building sound insulation,
building vibration, occupational noise and vibration, and space
acoustics for facilties such as concert halls, sound studios, or radio
stations. Acoustical engineering consulting services can be provided
by companies specialising in that field (for example Marshall Day
www.marshallday.com), or by general engineering consultancies (for
example Ove Arup www.arup.com).

matthewpettersson-ga,

Wow!  I knew Dubai was booming, but some of the projects I came across
in my search are unbelievable!  Clearly, there is a demand in this
part of the world for engineers of all stripes and areas of expertise.

At the same time, this is an area of the world where business
information is still difficult to come by -- online Yellow Pages,
business directories, professional associations, news articles and
other sources of information so familiar in many parts of the world
are still a rarity in much of the Middle East.

That said, I did manage to identify a number of acoustical engineering
specialist firms that are either headquartered in the countries you
listed, have offices in those countries, or have been involved in
projects there.

Here's the list I came up with:

As you can see, most of the listings are for companies or projects in
Dubai, with just a few mentions of work in Qatar.  I did not come
across any companies that had a specific presence in acoustical
engineering in Oman.

I trust this listing fully meets your needs.

However, if there's anything more I can do for you, just let me know
by posting a Request for Clarification, and I'm at your service.

Cheers,
