On July 29, 2025, China Construction First Bureau bore fruitful results in the Iraqi market, and four key projects were collectively started, covering high-end housing, oilfield logistics support, oilfield dormitory construction, facility operation and maintenance, etc., demonstrating the determination and strength of this central enterprise to deeply cultivate overseas markets and help the high-quality co-construction of the Belt and Road.

Among the projects that started this concentrated project, the "Akoya 3" high-end residential project in Baghdad, the capital of Iraq, has attracted much attention. The project is jointly built by China Construction First Bureau and the UAE's top developers, planning and constructing nearly 1,000 modern residential units with complete supporting facilities and scientific and reasonable layout. After the completion of the project, it will greatly improve the living conditions of Baghdad residents, improve the quality of life in the capital area, help urban renewal and upgrading, and become a model of livable communities in the region.

In the field of energy logistics services, the three projects started by China Construction First Bureau focus on the supporting construction of Iraqi oilfields. Among them, the Misan Oilfield Property Operation and Management Service Project is the first large-scale oilfield logistics support service project undertaken by China Construction First Bureau in the Middle East, covering WB block, BUT block and gas stations, airports and other ancillary areas, including camp facility maintenance, environmental sanitation and cleaning, landscaping maintenance, etc., which will explore a mature model for oilfield logistics integration services in high temperature and high pressure environments, and improve the operation efficiency of oilfield camps and the quality of life of personnel.

The two projects located in the Majnoon oilfield in Basra are also of great significance: the third phase of the Majnoon Oilfield dormitory building project will build a men's dormitory building and outdoor municipal supporting facilities, using the American and European standard systems to provide a high-quality living environment for oilfield operators and help upgrade the temporary facilities of the oilfield; The Madinu Oilfield Facility Operation and Maintenance Service Project focuses on the comprehensive management of oilfield facilities and ensures the efficient operation of the oilfield through professional operation and maintenance, which not only opens up a new format of China Construction First Bureau's overseas business, but also accumulates valuable experience in the international market.

The simultaneous landing of the four projects in Iraq is not only a positive response to the improvement of local people's livelihood and the upgrading of the energy industry, but also a concrete practice for enterprises to practice the Belt and Road Initiative and promote international production capacity cooperation. In the future, China Construction First Bureau will inject "Chinese power" into Iraq's urban development, energy security and people's livelihood and well-being with high standards and efficient performance, and continue to write a new chapter of overseas high-quality development.
