PROJECT OVERVIEW

Ibis & Adagio Doha is Qatar’s first dual-brand Ibis & Adagio property, strategically located on C-Ring Road between the vibrant districts of Al Sadd and Msheireb Downtown. With 306 keys, serviced apartments, multiple F&B outlets, a gym, swimming pool, meeting rooms, and a 100-guest function hall, the property required a high level of engineering readiness before opening to the public.

As a specialist MEP and HVAC engineering solutions provider in Qatar, Caltiq Trading, Contracting & Maintenance (CTCM) was appointed to execute the hotel’s pre-opening engineering works, resolve system defects, enhance building performance, and ensure that all mechanical and control systems were fully operational.

Our mandate included:

Caltiq ensured the property met the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and automation performance standards required for a world-class hospitality operation.

1. CALTIQ ENGINEERING SOLUTIONS – PRE-OPENING EXECUTION

Caltiq’s engineering team delivered a complete suite of technical solutions tailored for high-end hospitality environments. Our approach focused on diagnosing root causes, implementing corrective works, optimizing system performance, and ensuring long-term operational stability.

Our engineering involvement resolved major outstanding issues that had prevented the building from achieving operational readiness.

2. RESOLVING LIFT LOBBY CONDENSATION – ENGINEERING ROOT-CAUSE ANALYSIS

During pre-opening inspections, the lift lobby experienced severe condensation, creating humidity, fogging, moisture risks, and potential safety hazards.

Root Causes Identified by Caltiq Engineers

Engineering Solution

Caltiq implemented a complete airflow correction strategy:

Outcome

The condensation issue was completely resolved, stabilizing the humidity and ensuring long-term environmental control in a sensitive guest-circulation area.

3. WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM FAILURE – VFD-BASED ENGINEERING SOLUTION

A concealed water supply line had failed, resulting in unstable water pressure across multiple floors.
