Engineering, construction and procurement (EPC) company Nuberg Engineering today said it has won a Rs 1,000-crore contract to set up a USD 150 million chemical complex for the Abu Dhabi, UAE-based industrial conglomerate Al Ghaith Industries.
"This will be Nuberg's biggest contract... The complex will have 350 TPD Caustic Soda and 60 TPD Hydrogen Peroxide plants and is set to come up at the Khalifa Industrial Zone (Kizad) in Abu Dhabi," Nuberg said in a statement.
The completion of the project will make Al Ghaith Industries the largest manufacturer of Caustic Soda in the UAE.
It will also make Nuberg the largest EPC Company in UAE for the Chlor Alkali industry, having done three out of the four Chlor Alkali projects in that country already.
"Most of the equipment like vessels and storage tanks for the project at UAE will be manufactured in our Gujarat facility which has a production capacity of 250 tonnes per month," Nuberg Engineering MD A K Tyagi told PTI.
Tyagi said the project is an endorsement of Nuberg's leadership in the EPC space for chemical process plants," he said, adding that the award will act as a catalyst to help the company reach new heights.
Ali Hamel, Chairman, Al Ghaith said, "We are proud to announce another strategic EPC project which would further boost UAE's economy. This major project is a leap of growth towards becoming the pivotal catalyst for the Chlor Alkali Industry in the MENA (Middle East North Africa) region.
"It will enable us to become the leader in catering to the increased demand for Caustic Soda in the Middle East and Africa as well as create new market opportunities."
The company said this would be Nuberg's fourth consecutive EPC project for Al Ghaith, the first of which is set to be commissioned in September 2015.
Its first Chlor alkali project with Al Ghaith involved a 140 TPD capacity plant while the second signed in October last year was also for a similar capacity.
The third project involved the execution of a Calcium Chloride EPC contract.
The majority of the equipment will be built and exported from Nuberg's 1,15,000 sq m manufacturing facility in Jhagadia near Ankeleshwar in Gujarat.
