Indian firm will install cables and transmission line
- Larsen & Toubro wins $198m contract for cabling work and installing transmission line in Turaif, Qaseem and Hail
- Work will involve providing and installing 132kV cables and a 132kV double-circuit transmission line
Indias Larsen & Toubro (L&T) has been awarded a $198m contract for cabling work and installing transmission line in the Turaif, Qaseem and Hail areas of Saudi Arabia.
The work will involve providing and installing 132kV cables and a 132kV double-circuit transmission line.
The contract is the latest of a number of major transmission and distribution (T&D) contracts the Indian firm has won in the kingdom in recent years.
In early 2014, L&T was awarded a deal by state oil major Saudi Aramco to build an overhead transmission line and related electrical infrastructure.
The work will involve constructing 55 kilometres of 230kV overhead transmission line and underground cabling to upgrade the existing power system at Aramcos Abu Ali power plants, located north of Jubail in the Eastern Province.
Just prior to this, in December 2013, L&T was awarded a contract to build a 132kV overhead transmission line and connection in the Riyadh electricity network.
