Data centre and AI infrastructure sites, advised across the GCC.
Gamcap originates and structures sites engineered for institutional data centre and AI infrastructure delivery in the UAE and wider GCC. Power capacity, fibre routes, water rights, planning consents, and operator-grade documentation — sequenced so a buyer or operator can move directly to construction.
Six operator inputs, resolved before exit.
Each item below is closed and documented prior to commercial process. The buyer takes a site, not a programme of risk.
Power availability
Confirmed grid capacity at scale across DEWA, FEWA, EWEC, SEWA, and KAHRAMAA jurisdictions where relevant. Connection offer secured. Behind-the-meter and on-site generation routes evaluated where they materially improve deliverability.
Grid connection strategy
Connection programme aligned to site capacity and operator phasing. Substation, transmission, and utility interfaces engineered into the site plan from origination.
Fibre proximity
Diverse fibre routes assessed and optioned across UAE submarine cable landings, regional terrestrial backbones, and metro networks. Latency profiles evaluated for hyperscale and AI workloads.
Water and cooling
Water rights, cooling system options, and environmental clearances secured. Site selection biased toward water-resilient configurations — air-cooled, sea-water-cooled, or treated effluent — where the GCC environment requires it.
Planning and permits
Free-zone versus onshore positioning evaluated. Use class consented for data centre development. Environmental permits, construction clearances, and political alignment maintained from origination through exit.
Land control and exit-readiness
Long-form land position. Title, access, and operator-grade SPV structure. Documentation built for institutional handover under standard infrastructure terms recognised by funds, sovereigns, and hyperscale operators.
Sites shaped to operator specifications, not retrofitted to them.
Hyperscale cloud, AI infrastructure, and colocation operators each have specific site requirements: power density, redundancy, latency profile, water envelope, and the political environment of the host jurisdiction. The GCC is a multi-regulator market — site selection is a political and infrastructure exercise as much as a real estate one.
We engage early. The site is shaped to a known buyer category before the development programme begins. Where the operator is identified at origination, exit terms can be agreed in advance under institutional documentation.
