Doosan Enerbility Co., a major Korean plant builder, said Monday it has won a 530 billion-won ($350 million) contract with a consortium including the state-run Korea Western Power Co. to build a combined cycle power plant in Oman.
The company said it has formed an engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) consortium with China's SEPCO-3 for the construction of the 870-megawatt power plant in Duqm, 550 kilometers south of Muscat, the capital of the Middle Eastern nation.
Doosan Enerbility will also manufacture and supply key equipment, including steam turbines and generators.
The power plant, scheduled to be completed by 2029, will be built in a special economic zone at Duqm. The plant is expected to help meet the growing demand for electricity in southern Oman and improve the stability of power supply in the region.
