PRESS RELEASE 9 November 2009
FLSmidth has signed a contract worth approximately 21 million Euros
(approximately DKK 156m) with the Egyptian cement producer Arabian
Cement Company for supply of engineering and equipment for a 360
tonnes per day cement mill and packing plant.
The equipment is to be installed next to the company's existing
cement production plant located at Ramliya, near the city of Suez - a
6,000 tonnes per day facility supplied by FLSmidth on a turnkey basis
in 2006-2008.
The contract comprises all major equipment such as two UMS cement
mills and cement silos as well as three cement packing/dispatch
plants.
A number of FLSmidth subsidiaries and divisions will participate in
the project, providing dosing and weighing equipment, dedusting
filters and cement packing systems. A complete electrical and control
equipment package is also included in the contract.
The project will be implemented in parallel with FLSmidth's current
supply of engineering and equipment for a complete second 6,000
tonnes per day cement production line at the plant, which was
contracted in June 2008.
"This project confirms FLSmidth's good relations with Arabian Cement
Company and FLSmidth's strong position on the Egyptian market which
goes back more than a hundred years," Group CEO Jørgen Huno Rasmussen
comments.
Commissioning of the equipment is scheduled to take place by the end
of 2010.
