Alfa Laval wins SEK 70 million power order    from the Middle East

Alfa Laval - a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid
handling - has received an order for crude oil treatment at Rabigh gas turbine
power plant in Saudi Arabia. The order value is about SEK 70 million and
delivery is scheduled for 2009.

“During the last month we have won two large power orders from Asia which
confirms that energy related customers continue to invest,” says Lars Renström,
President and CEO of the Alfa Laval Group. 

This is Alfa Laval's second order for the Rabigh Power plant this year, and
includes separators and plate heat exchangers for cleaning of crude oil and oily
water. The latest stage of Rabigh expansion project consists of 12 gas turbines
generating an extra 720 MWe of capacity to the installed capacity of 2,700 MWe. 


Did you know that over the next two decades, Saudi Arabia's electric generation
capacity is set to more than double - to 60 gigawatts (GWe) - roughly equivalent
to the current capacity of South Korea. Moreover, almost all of Saudi Arabia's'
power generation is based on Natural Gas and Crude (or distilled) Oil. Alfa
Laval is the biggest supplier of liquid fuel cleaning equipment to the power
industry in Saudi Arabia.
