Dammam, Saudi Arabia – Good news arrives from the Saudi Aramco Dammam Stadium: the main steel structure of the project—for which Tengfa Middle East provided cranes and undertook the critical lifting operations—has been fully installed. Completed three months ahead of schedule, this achievement sets a new benchmark for the construction of large-scale sports venues in the Middle East.

This magnificent structure, composed of 16 spiral "petals," will serve as a dazzling stage for the 2027 Asian Cup and the 2034 FIFA World Cup. As a core project under Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, Tengfa Middle East has contributed "Chinese Lifting Power" through its high-quality equipment and service capabilities, working alongside partners to bring this vision to life.

Defying Limits: Showcasing Hardcore Capabilities

The stadium features 22 segments of inner and outer compression rings, with the largest single component weighing over 360 tons. Facing these structural complexities and challenges, Tengfa Middle East leveraged its superior resource allocation capabilities to deploy a fleet of more than 140 units of various engineering machinery. This included multiple large crawler cranes and truck cranes (ranging from 400t to 1,000t) and aerial work platforms, ensuring seamless connections and efficient operation throughout the construction phases.

Smart Synergy: Creating Benchmark Efficiency

The Tengfa Middle East project team maintained close coordination with all participating parties, establishing real-time linkage with technical experts from the headquarters in Shanghai. By adopting an innovative "Remote Support + On-site Execution" work model, the team met the stringent requirements of Saudi Aramco while perfectly aligning with the client's construction schedule. They successfully completed the lifting of over 10,000 tons of main steel structure. Their efficient, precise, and safe performance earned high praise from all stakeholders, creating the "Tengfa Speed" for large-scale stadium lifting projects in Saudi Arabia.

Strategy in Action: Internationalization & Digitalization

The rapid progress at the Aramco Stadium project is a vivid practice of Shanghai Tengfa’s strategy of "Internationalization, Digitalization, and Standardization" in a specific project. We did not merely export advanced equipment; we delivered comprehensive solutions encompassing project management, safety assurance, and technological innovation. This project serves as a prime example of Tengfa’s integrated solutions and international project execution capabilities for global mega-projects.

The spiral-petal-shaped stadium will become a new urban landmark for Saudi Arabia. With its solid "arms," Tengfa Middle East has hoisted this "Desert Crown"—a symbol of future and hope—contributing Chinese strength to world sports.
