  Hill International, Marlton, said Sheikh Surour bin Mohammed al-Nahyan has given the firm an $8.1 million extension to its two-and-a-half year old, $3.2 million contract to manage construction at his $681 million Etihad Towers project in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
  Al-Nahyan, a member of the oil-rich Persian Gulf nation’s ruling family, owns the towers, along with the nearby Beach Rotana Hotel and the Abu Dhabi Mall, said Hill spokesman John Paolin.
  Hill’s business in Arabic-speaking countries has grown rapidly under Raouf S. Ghali, head of its Project Management Group (International), and other locally-based executives during the recent oil boom.
