| Cegelec to build underground gas storage facility in the Netherlands French engineering and electrical engineering group Cegelec will provide the electrical systems, instrumentation and building installations (HVAC, security) for the first underground gas storage facility in salt caverns in the Netherlands. The contract, worth some €21 million out of a €90 million large project, was signed with the Dutch constructor BAM Group. The project is scheduled for completion by the end of 2010. The natural gas storage facility, located in the Groningen province near one of Europe's biggest gas fields, will consist of four salt caverns with a total storage capacity of 180 million cubic meters. In addition, above-ground installations will be built, including five compressors and the installations required to extract and dry the gas. write your comments about the article :: © 2009 Construction News :: home page |
