I would recommend PRINCE2 if you represent customer because PRINCE2 based on customer/Supplier concept, also it is provide a very good description for roles and responsiblites for everyone work with the project.

As you have mentioned that you dont have a formal qualification & also mentioned that you are open to study. I would suggest that first you should acquire formal qualification releated to civil engineering like B.Tech or Bachelors. 

Also as you mentioned that you have managed many projects & operations that means you have a solid background of operations so yo can do PGDM or MBA in operation mangement. 

Last but not the least as many people suggested you can go for PMP......
