Zecon Berhad has won a $US7.1 million contract from Punj Lloyd to provide the civil, structural, mechanical, electrical and architectural works, including supplies for buildings, at the Bintulu Compressor Station for the Sabah – Sarawak gas pipeline project.
The Sabah – Sarawak gas pipeline will involve the construction of a 512 km, 26 inch diameter onshore natural gas pipeline from the proposed Sabah Oil and Gas Terminal in Kimanis, Sabah to Petronas’ LNG Complex in Bintulu, Sarawak.
About 90 km of the pipeline will traverse Sabah while 422 km will be located in the state of Sarawak.
Construction of the project is scheduled for completion by March 2011.
