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

Fair use rationale for Image:Ccc.jpg

Latest comment: 16 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Image:Ccc.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:42, 2 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

{{editprotected}} The following passage must be removed as it is lifted directly from the CCC web page:

The letters CCC represented a little more than the partnership of three ambitious young men. Today these initials embrace the ambitions and welfare of approximately 140,000 employed, composed of more than 60 nationalities

Lifted from facts and statistics under "About Us"... here is the passage from the ccc.gr web site:

From its beginnings in 1952 CCC, has become the largest engineering and construction company in the Middle East. Today CCC embraces the ambitions and welfare of over 140,000 employees composed of over sixty nationalities. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hataf (talk • contribs)

References section contains only one reference to an article titled "Oil sheikhs face threat of prison". Wikipedia user by the name of User:Hataf is repeatedly trying to put this link and text form the article into this page. If we need to put reference to the news articles about CCC why not put some articles returned by Google News: http://news.google.com/news?q=%22consolidated+contractors+company%22

Someone needs to warn sajikhoury as he is constantly vandalising this article

Latest comment: 12 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Sajikhoury is constantly vandalising this article.. he is the son of Samer Khoury who is a Director of CCC and they do not want the bad publicity associated with their bank accounts being frozen66.30.196.198 (talk) 22:28, 2 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

If Sajik Khoury is anything like people of his name working for CCC in Asia then his in my experience and opinion you are right to distrust them. One of their senior managers of camps and catering also comments on their lack of ethics.--Thaipacific (talk) 09:36, 16 June 2012 (UTC)192.58.23.4Reply
