Suez wins 77 mln usd share of Qatar sewage plant contract with Marubeni, Mushrif

Marubeni, Mushrif win QAR 683 million order for sewage treatment plant in Qatar


Marubeni Corp., Japan's fifth-largest trading firm, and its Kuwaiti and French partners have won a QAR 683 million contract in Qatar to build a sewage treatment plant and operate the facility for 10 years, the company said here Tuesday.

The contract consists of new construction of a sewage treatment plant, including its pipe network and pumps, as well as the operation and maintenance works, the Tokyo-based Marubeni said in a statement.

Marubeni will be in charge of supplying pump-related equipment, in addition to operating and servicing the pumps. A major Kuwaiti contractor Mushrif Trading and Contracting Co. will conducts the civil works and pipe laying works and Degremont, a major French water treatment plant firm, will manage the facility.

The plant, which is designed to serve for 200,000 residents, is expected to be built by the end of 2007 in a new city called Lusail Development Area that is currently under construction on the outskirts of Doha.

Further development on sewage treatment works would be expected in Qatar and Marubeni remains focused on the contribution on this field in Qatar as well as in the Middle East, it added.

could you explain some more? & can you give us example?

i understand that the kuwiti group, alkhrafi & brothers, are building airport in egypt, under the BOT agreement.

Basically, (using my best knowledge in business since I am studying engineering) it means that your company is assigned a job such as building an airport. After you build it, you then manage it (get it going). After you get the wheels turning sort-of-speak, you tranfer ownership to the people who assigned you the project. In Khaafi's case, they transfer it back to the Egyptians. I hope I am right--please correct me.

يعني يا محفوظ السلامة انت كقطاع خاص تاخد ارض من الحكومة وانت الي تبنيها واتشغلها بعد مرور زمن معين على حسب العقد الي مع الحكومة وبالتالي تحولها الى الحكومة وطبعا الدولة تاخد نسبة من ارباح المشروع على حسب الاتفاق مع الحكومة وبهطريقة الدولة تستفيد في تطوير الاراضي الغير مستغلة ويعود ريع كبير للدولة وايضا يستفيد القطاع الخاسبشكل كبير على سبيل المثال مارينا مول وسوق شرق وفي نظام يديد اسمة الشراكة مابين القطاع الخاص و العام مثل مدينة الحرير اي بالانجليزي البي بي بي

I personally think that Madinat Al Hareer will be built because the inter-linked project Jaber Al Ahmed Bridge has been approved and constrcution on this should start some time soon.

About the kuwaiti Newspapers, I wouldn't listen to everything they say because they are known to crticize a lot

i hope so. but have you forgotten about your parliament? don't you think that they might object to the project, just like they did to the North Fields project?

The parliament rejected for an international company (e.g. shell) to develop the North Fields by themselves. They were objecting because they didn't want all the oil money to go to these companies. I think an agreement has been reached between the government and the parliament in that an international company will only manage the project but not control it.

I don't think that any of the members of parliament will reject this project that is if they want to be re-elected in 2007
