complex in the Orinoco oil belt in central Venezuela. The contract includes a siting study to determine suitable locations for this major grass roots processing complex. Once completed, it will process approximately 800 000 barrels of extra heavy oil per day which will be used to produce synthetic crude oils for international crude oil markets. SNC-Lavalin has started work on the project, which it will carry out in conjunction with Venezuelan contractors and international process licensors. The scoping study should be completed by the first quarter of 2007.
WATER & WASTEWATER SUEZ SECURES WASTEWATER SERVICES WORK IN CHINA Suez Environment has won four new contracts in water and wastewater services in China. Degrémont has just signed a 13.5 million contract for the design and construction of a drinking water plant in Macao with a capacity of 60 000 m3/day. The new plant will be equipped with ultrafiltration membranes, developed by Suez Group R&D. Degrémont has also secured a contract worth 6.5 million for the design and construction of a drinking water plant for the city of Tianjin. The drinking water plant, with a treatment capacity of 500 000 m3/day, will be equipped with DENSADEG technology for primary decantation, and AQUAZUR technology for filtration. It is one of only two plants of this type in China, the second being developed in Nanshi, the site for the World Fair scheduled to take place in Shanghai in 2010.

Suez Environment has also signed a 30-year 1 billion contract for the complete management of water services in Changshu. Allocated after an international invitation to tender, the 30-year contract represents a first-year turnover of 30 million. Suez Environment, through its subsidiary Degrémont, has just signed a contract with Tianjin Tiantie Group Co Ltd for the construction of a treatment plant to re-use wastewater, with an overall capacity of 55 200 m3/day. This is SUEZ Environment’s 10th contract in the Chinese iron and steel industry.
M&E TO DESIGNBUILD WATER TREATMENT PLANT Metcalf & Eddy has been awarded a US$29 million design-build contract by Carroll County, Maryland to design and construct an expansion of Carroll County’s Freedom District Water Treatment Plant The new 4-mgd facility will augment the existing plant, increasing the total capacity to 7-mgd, and will be designed to facilitate future capacity increases. Treatment technologies to be employed include dissolved air flotation clarification, membrane filtration. A finished water pump station and transmission main are also part of the project, which is scheduled for completion in the autumn of 2008. The county has asked M&E to implement an alternative facility layout designed by M&E to reduce construction time and save significant capital and operational cost. The alternate design, developed by M&E during the procurement process, consolidates the facility’s primary components into one compact structure.
SKANSKA AWARDED NY ENVIRONMENT ASSIGNMENT Skanska is to upgrade a water pollution control plant in Queens, New York. The US$183 million contract was placed by the New York City Department of Environmental Protection. The contract is for the retrofit and upgrade of the Bowery Bay Water Pollution Control Plant. The facility is one of New York’s oldest plants and the purpose of the project is primarily to improve nitrogen removal. The project is part of the New York City program to reduce pollution and improve water quality in the East River and the Long Island Sound. Skanska will be responsible for the procurement, construction, installation and commissioning of the new equipment. The assignment includes foundation and piling work, rehabilitation of concrete tanks, steel construction and 23 kms of piping. Work onsite will start immediately and should be completed in five years. This is Skanska’s fifth major environment assignment in New York.

PULP & PAPER METSO TO SUPPLY LINERBOARD MACHINE TO CHINA Metso Paper will supply a linerboard machine to Zhejiang JiAn Paper Packet Co Ltd in China. The machine, which will have an annual capacity of about 450 000 tonnes, will
come on stream in Haiyan, Zhejiang province, in 2007. Metso’s new local unit, Metso Paper Technology (Shanghai) Co Ltd, will play an important role in the delivery. The order contains a complete three-ply linerboard machine. The new PM 1 will have a wire width of 7250 mm and a design speed of 1100 m/min. It will produce linerboard in a basis weight range of 90–200 g/m2. Earlier this year the Haiyan mill, which is located approximately 120 km southwest of Shanghai, started up its first machine, supplied by Metso Paper. The 6 m-wide, 300 000 t/y unit produces industrial packaging paper. The privately owned company currently employs around 750 people.
ENERGY TECHNIP TO BUILD BIOETHANOL UNIT IN FRANCE Ryssen, a subsidiary of the sugar producer Saint Louis Sucre, has awarded Technip a turnkey contract for the construction of a new bioethanol production unit. This new production unit will use Technip’s proprietary technology and will be built in the port of Dunkirk, France. This project fits into the framework of the biofuels development program set up by the French government in order to reduce transportation-related air pollution and dependence on imported energy. This new production unit should start up in July 2007. This contract represents a new phase in Technip’s collaboration with Ryssen, for which it built an ethanol facility at the same site in 2005.
