Military Production Ministry to announce qualified companies to work on Dabaa plant in two months

The Military Production Ministry will begin reviewing offers from local companies looking to work on the Dabaa nuclear power plant in two months’ time, Minister Mohamed El Assar said yesterday. Petrojet, Hassan Allam, Arab Contractors, Elsewedy, ABB Egypt, and Orascom are among the 86 companies that have submitted offers, according to unnamed sources. Russia’s Rosatom will be consulted during the selection process. Sabbour Consulting was reportedly bidding for two design contracts related to work on project earlier this year. Rosatom had invited Egyptian engineering and consulting firms to begin presenting their offers to work last November.
