Business Wire
Insituform Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq Global Select Market:
INSU) announced today that its joint venture, UPS-Aptec Limited,
has been awarded a $67.3 million (USD) project for the installation
of approximately 135 miles of high-density polyethylene (HDPE)
liner in pipelines located in the Khouribga basin in Morocco.
UPS-Aptec Limited is 51% owned by United Pipeline Systems
International, Inc., a subsidiary of Insituform, and 49% owned by
Allied Pipeline Technologies SA, a Chilean company (“APTec”).
UPS-Aptec Limited will install the HDPE liner in new pipelines
for the Office Cherifien des Phosphates (OCP) Slurry Pipeline
project. OCP is the world’s largest exporter of phosphates and
derivatives. UPS-Aptec Limited is a subcontractor to Tekfen
Construction and Installation Co. Inc., a Turkish company, the
general contractor for the project. The OCP slurry pipeline will be
lined with HDPE pipe to provide corrosion protection and abrasion
resistance to the newly installed pipelines, which will carry
several grades of phosphates to Jorf Lasfar Terminal located
between Khouribga and Jorf Lasfar.
J. Joseph Burgess, President and Chief Executive Officer of
Insituform, said, “We are proud to have secured this project, which
is the largest single project in United Pipeline Systems’ history.
Securing this project required the coordinated efforts of United
Pipeline Systems, Insituform and APTec. The partnership brings
together United Pipeline Systems’ long history and vast experience
working on large Tite Liner® projects in new countries while APTec
brings the experience of Tehmco SA, a Chilean company and affiliate
of APTec (“Tehmco”), in producing HDPE pipe. Tehmco has teamed up
with a local HDPE producer and will be adding a new extrusion line
to produce the HDPE pipe for the project. This project together
with Insituform’s Energy and Mining group’s overall efforts in the
Middle East and North Africa are expected to generate over $120
million in revenues in 2012.”
Dorwin Hawn, Senior Vice President, Energy and Mining, of
Insituform, said, “This historic contract award recognizes United
Pipeline Systems’ ability to manage and execute complex and
challenging projects in difficult work environments. This project
award also highlights the growing acceptance and endorsement of
Insituform’s Energy and Mining group’s product and service offering
throughout the Middle East and North Africa, further validating the
decision to focus our business development efforts in these
important geographic regions.”
This project is expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2011
and be completed by the end of 2012.
