Larsen & Toubro has secured two engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) projects worth around Rs.1,100 crore in the hydrocarbon segment in UAE and Qatar. The Indian major has also won the contract for the fuel depot expansion of the Abu Dhabi International Airport.
The depot expansion project aims to upgrade the facility to meet the increased demand for jet fuel over the next 20 years. L&T is to take over the EPC of the Abu Dhabi Oil Refining Company refining, which will raise the storage capacity of aviation fuel depot to 80 million litres.
Viral Shah, analyst at Angel Broking noted, ``The project involves EPC work of a new aviation fuel terminal for developing storage and deliver of Jet A-1 fuel at the Abu Dhabi International Airport. The project is awarded by Takreer, a subsidiary of state owned Abu Dhabi National Oil Company, and is expected to be completed in 30 months. In Qatar, L&T has bagged an EPC contract for third party gas interconnecting facilities in Ras Laffan from Dolphin Energy. The project has a construction period of 20 months.''
L&T is already executing another export gas upgrade facilities project for Dolphin Energy to increase the capacity of the export gas compressors facilities by adding three new compression trains.
