Ducab, the leading manufacturers of high quality power cables in the UAE, has recently been awarded a contract valued at AD 24 million by Daelim Industrial Co Ltd., a leading Engineering, Procurement and Construction company in Korea, for the supply of Power and Control cables for KOC's key Effluent Water Disposal Plant project. 

 

Announcing the contract, Colin Paskins, Managing Director, Ducab, said, "Since its inception in 1979, Ducab has established a tradition that combines a high degree of quality assurance with cutting-edge technological innovations to deliver cable solutions at par with global standards of excellence. With this contract, Ducab reconfirms its position as the preferred partner for Oil, Gas and Petrochemical projects in the Middle East." 

 

Under the terms of the contract, Ducab will supply 6.35/11 kV Lead sheathed Power cables and Pilot cables for the Project in Southeast Kuwait. The contract was won by Ducab amidst stiff competition from other GCC & international 

cable manufacturers through a stringent selection process by KOC. 

 

"Ducab's uncompromising quality focus, timely delivery and strategic location ultimately won the project" said S I Chang, President, Sangmin Consultancy Trading, a leading Korean EPC Consultancy and Consultants for the KOC project. 

 

"OGP projects are extremely vital to the growth of the oil industry, which in turn ensures a vibrant world economy. These projects must be executed with extreme care and the use of immaculate components is of prime concern to any contractor. The combination of assured quality and prompt delivery schedules made the company the ideal choice for KOC's Effluent Water Disposal project." explained Yasser Hussein, OGP & Exports Manager, Ducab.  

 

The competitive bidding for the project was co-ordinated through Rezayat, Ducab's business associate in Kuwait. With the award of the contract in Kuwait, Ducab has yet another prestigious OGP project in the Middle East markets. (menareport.com)
