Netherlands-based construction and infrastructure specialist Ballast Nedam has won a €25 million contract for expansion works at a refinery in Suriname.
Expansion works to double the processing capacity at Tout Lui Faut Refinery to 15,000 barrels a day are due to commence in April. Staatsolie Maatschappij Suriname, the state oil company of Suriname, has awarded Ballast Nedam the general civil and steel piling works contract for the project.
The company will supply and install 373 steel piles, process approximately 28,800 cubic metres of concrete, and carry out associated earthworks for the foundations of the refinery expansion.
Ballast Nedam said the project was in line with its strategy of focusing on integrated projects and on the niche markets of industrial construction, hospitals, offshore wind turbines, secondary raw materials and alternative fuels.
Headquartered in Nieuwegein, the Netherlands, Ballast Nedam customers include businesses, public authorities and housing consumers, across the mobility, housing, employment, leisure and energy sectors. The company offers project, process and contract management in the development, implementation and management phases of a project.
