Indian engineering and construction conglomerate, Larsen and Toubro (L&T) has been awarded a 114 million Emirati dirham ($31 million) contract to supply and install an electrical aerial line at the Union Water & Electricity Company (UWEC)’s Al-Fujairah power generation plant.
The company won the tender, launched by the United Arab Emirates’ (UAE) Ministry of Electricty several weeks ago. The deal commissions L&T with supplying and installing a 69-kilometer double circuit overhead a 400 kilovolt power line from UWEC’s power plant in Qidfa to Al-Dhaid in Sharjah.
L&T recently bagged two engineering, procurement & construction (EPC) contracts valued at $24.8 million from the Kuwait National Petroleum Company (KNPC) for the revamping of Sulphur Recovery Units at their refineries at Shuaiba and Mina Abdullah in Kuwait.
The projects aim to enhance the existing capacities of Sulphur Recovery Streams. Both these projects are based on the proprietary Oxygen Enrichment technology of M/s Parsons of the United Kingdom who are process licensors for the projects. — (menareport.com)
