The construction of artificial islands in the Arabian Gulf region has gained significant prominence due to the booming real estate sector and its substantial benefits across various industries, including oil and gas. A prime example the use of artificial island in oil exploration project in UAE, recognized as the first in the region to utilize artificial island technology as an alternative to traditional steel jack platforms. This ambitious project involves the construction of four artificial islands strategically located within the oil field in UAE, one of the world's largest oil fields. The water depths in these locations range from 7 meters to 15 meters. The selection of these specific sites was based on careful consideration of several critical factors, including reservoir plans, existing production facilities, seabed bathymetry, and metocean and geotechnical conditions. This paper provides a detailed analysis of the engineering principles behind the design and construction of these islands, the construction techniques employed, and the materials used to ensure their durability and functionality in the challenging marine environment of the Arabian Gulf. The construction of these islands has involved the mobilization of more than 100 marine vessels and includes approximately 25 million cubic meters of land reclamation, which requires improvement using vibro-compaction techniques. Additionally, the project entails the construction of revetments and breakwaters using around 14 million tonnes of rock and 285,000 cubic meters of concrete armor units, as well as the creation of mini harbors involving the construction of about 1,720 meters of quay walls (approximately 88,000 cubic meters of concrete).
