6 December, 2011

LS Cable & System had won two contracts worth a total of $102 million to supply power cables. The company will supply 220kV level extra high-voltage transmission cables worth $91 million to the Qatar General Electricity & Water Corporation, and deliver large-capacity electric transmission 1,000V bus ducts worth $11 million to the Public Works Authority of Qatar for the Hamad Medical City project.

LS Cable & System will supply a total of 157km of 220kV level extra high-voltage cables and joint kits to the Doha area by July 2013.

LS Cable & System Executive President Jaein Yun said, “This project is very meaningful because it is the first important power network contract won from the Middle East since the Jasmine Revolution earlier this year.” He added, “As the demand for democracy and progress will increase in the future, national backbone industry implementation will be more activated in line with industrial development. Considering this, we will perform marketing activities more vigorously.”
