FIFA World Cup 2022 Set to Propel Demand for HVAC Maintenance Services in Qatar

The expansion of the construction industry is one of the biggest factors responsible for the soaring demand for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) services in Qatar. Moreover, with the sharp surge in infrastructural development and construction activities, the HVAC industry is exhibiting rapid expansion in the country. The industry is predicted to grow at nearly 7.7% rate between 2018 and 2023. Furthermore, the construction industry registered a year-on-year growth of 20% from 2017 to 2018.

The industry was being driven by Qatari government’s National Vision 2030, under which, the government plans to develop non-oil sectors in the country in order to reduce the country’s reliance on the oil and gas industry and to develop infrastructure for hosting the FIFA World Cup 2022. Some of the major construction projects launched recently in the country are Sheraton Park (2016), Hamad International Airport (2014), and Sidra Medical Research Centre (2018).

The country also hosted the World Athletics Championships in 2019, which created lucrative growth opportunities for the HVAC maintenance service providing organizations in the country. This event attracted a large number of tourists and was responsible for the construction of several new hotels and resorts. Moreover, it fueled the expansion of the tourism and hospitality sector and the food and beverage industry in the country. This pushed up the demand for HVAC systems and associated maintenance services in the country.

Due to the aforementioned factors, the Qatar heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) maintenance service market is demonstrating rapid expansion. Out of the heating, ventilation, and cooling systems, the sales of the cooling systems were found to be the highest in the country in the past years. Variable refrigerant flow (VRF), split units, room ACs, ducted split/packaged units, and chillers are the most widely used cooling systems in the country.
