Viet Nam’s Lilama Corporation has signed a contract to manufacture and install mechanical equipment for a fertiliser plant in Brunei.

The signing marked the first overseas project of Lilama that covers a complete course of material, equipment and human resources supply.

The 23-hectare A/U fertiliser plant is located at the Sungai Liang Industrial Park, 100 km away from Bandar Seri Begawan, the capital of Brunei.

Under the freshly signed contract, Lilama will carry out about 80 per cent of the plant’s mechanical workload, which might increase during its working course of 23 months starting December this year.

Director General of Lilama Corporation Le Van Tuan said the project has strict requirements on quality, progress, and labour safety.

He revealed that during intensive periods of the project, Lilama might need to deploy up to 1,200 workers. — VNS
