After the field work and the lab testing I will prepare factual reports of the findings of the in-vestigation under the supervision of the engineering manager. If there is engineering in-volved, I will do this as well. Of course there will be training on the job, but after some initial instructions the &amp;lsquo;floor is yours&amp;rsquo;. As used in earlier days, when &amp;lsquo;tropical years&amp;rsquo; of service counted double, learning &amp;lsquo;double in the half time&amp;rsquo; is still valid; not only technically, but also with regard to interpersonal development when working in the buoyant business environment of the Middle East and different cultures.&lt;br /&gt;</body>

  <description>New buildings will be built at the area of the police academy in Dubai. The location is in between the Burj Al Arab, the world famous seven star hotel, and the entrance to the Palm Jumeirah.  A soil investigation is needed for the design of the foundations. In total, they need approximately 250 boreholes to depths of about 50 meters for a total of about 12.000 meters: a project of significant size

The project started in the beginning of October and I am the project engineer on this project. I have meetings, e-mail and telephone contact with the Client.  When exploration begins, I will be responsible for tracking the daily production of the field crews as well as the administra-tion and coordination of the field works and interaction between the field crew and the labora-tory (all field samples need testing). The people working in the field and the laboratory consist of Pakistani, Indian and Filipino nationals.
