The German technology group Linde has secured its largest individual order ever for air separation plants in Saudi Arabia. The total order of the deal exceeds 300 million Euros.

 

The two oxygen production facilities have been commissioned by National Industrial Gas Company (NIGC), the largest industrial gases company in the Middle East and a subsidiary of the partially state-owned SABIC (Saudi Basic Industrial Corporation).

 

Linde will assume responsibility for the engineering, procurement of equipment and materials as well as construction and commissioning of the facilities, each of which will generate 3,000 tonnes of oxygen per day.

 

The plants are scheduled to start operation in April 2008.
