Golden Tulip Hotel Owerri — Construction & MEP Installation
Construction and integrated MEP installation for the Golden Tulip Hotel in Owerri. Scope covered building works, a triple-pump pressurised water booster set, rooftop HVAC condensing plant with refrigerant piping, life-safety systems, and external works including paving of the arrival and back-of-house areas.
What the project set out to do
- Deliver a hotel-grade building envelope ready for operator fit-out
- Install a pressurised water system reliable for hospitality demand profiles
- Install rooftop HVAC condensing plant and refrigerant reticulation
- Complete external works and paving to a guest-arrival standard
What we were up against
A hotel's guest experience depends on uninterrupted water and cooling. The MEP scheme had to be resilient by design, not by patching after opening.
Rooftop condensers, refrigerant runs, and structural support steel had to be sequenced with roofing and waterproofing to avoid post-installation penetrations.
How we delivered
A duty/assist/standby pressurised water system provides ride-through against any single-pump failure — critical for hotel operations.
Structural plinths, refrigerant routing, and drainage were installed before roofing close-in, eliminating post-handover roof penetrations.
External works were paved to hotel-arrival standards, with a segregated back-of-house route for service vehicles.
Reinforced-concrete superstructure with block infill. MEP scope includes a duty/assist/standby booster pump set, rooftop HVAC condensing units with brazed refrigerant piping, addressable fire-alarm and life-safety systems, and generator-backed LV distribution.
Delivered under a construction-plus-MEP scope with a resident engineering team, weekly progress reporting to the client, and formal commissioning of every MEP system prior to hotel opening.
Booster set pressure-tested and witnessed. HVAC refrigerant circuits vacuum-tested and leak-checked before charging. Fire-alarm cause-and-effect testing witnessed against the approved matrix.
A completed hotel building with commissioned MEP systems, delivered ready for the Golden Tulip operator team to activate.
