Brewer — Cianbro announced Tuesday, Jan. 18, that it has won its second contract in four months for constructing industrial modules at its Eastern Manufacturing Facility.
According to a press release from Alan Grover, Cianbro public relations and corporate communications manager, Cianbro's latest client is a major North American petrochemical corporation.
The modules will reportedly be similar to those constructed from 2008 to 2010 by Cianbro for the Motiva refinery, and will include process and pipe rack modules. Grover said Cianbro will immediately begin assembling the modules, which will be shipped to their final destination by barge.
Cianbro Chairman and CEO Pete Vigue said the award is a source of pride for the company. "Despite the struggling economy and the limited amount of activity in the modular industry, Cianbro has been able to win this work," he said.
"The project award reflects the confidence with which major players in the petrochemical industry view our company and our team members, who continue to satisfy our clients with outstanding performance. Since the petrochemical industry has exacting safety requirements, it is also a big advantage for Cianbro that our company has accomplished significant safety achievements in recent years, including zero lost time injuries companywide throughout all of 2010. That's more than 3 million work hours without a lost time injury."
Four months ago, Cianbro announced that Vale, an international mining company based in Brazil, had awarded it a contract to construct 22 electrical room modules.
The electrical rooms will be installed in a nickel processing plant that Vale is constructing in Long Harbour, Newfoundland, Canada. That project, said Grover, is slated to continue until the second quarter of 2012.
Joe Cote, Cianbro vice president and general manager, said the two projects will simultaneously be under way on the pad at Eastern Manufacturing Facility.
