I recently had the privilege of participating as a speaker at the FIDIC Saudi Conference, held at the Hilton Riyadh Hotel & Residences – Financial District. This exceptional event brought together some of the most respected and experienced practitioners of FIDIC Contracts from across the industry and the region.
During the conference, I delivered a presentation on Prolongation Cost Entitlements under FIDIC Contracts 1999 and 2017, incorporating key insights from the Society of Construction Law (SCL) Protocol. It was an engaging discussion with a highly informed and participative audience, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to contribute to such an important topic within the field of construction law and contract management.
The event itself was excellently organized, offering not only insightful sessions but also great networking opportunities. I had the pleasure of connecting with many distinguished professionals and experts in the industry, including:
- Dr. Nabil Abbas FCIArb.
- AMR Abdeljalil
- Daniel M. Alcon
- Taner Dedezade
- Rami Ismail FCT®, FCCM®, PMP®,SP®,RMP®,ACP®

I would like to extend my sincere thanks to the organizers for hosting such a well-coordinated and impactful event. I look forward to future opportunities for collaboration and continued knowledge exchange within the FIDIC and wider construction community.
