South Korea Doosan Enerbility Vietnam (Doosan Vina) has shipped a cargo of made-in-Việt Nam steel structures to the Golden Triangle Polymers Plant, an integrated polymers facility being developed in Orange County, Texas in the US, after more than 10 months of production.

Doosan Vina said the nine steel structure modules weighing 1,900 tonnes were a part of the Golden Triangle Polymers project (GTPP) that was signed between Doosan Vina and the joint venture ZDJV and investor CP Chem in 2023, including 18 modules with a total weight of 4,589 tonnes.

It said the remaining nine modules had also been almost completed and were in the process of pressure testing, installing electrical troughs and related parts for timely handover to customers on April 16.

Doosan Vina General Director Kim Hyo Tae said: “We are very proud winning the contract to supply 18 modules for the US market for the first time and this is the first project that all of the steel structures are galvanized and fireproof painted with the participation of the joint venture ZDJV and investor CPChem.”

“Also, moving towards sustainable development and a low-carbon future, we are proud to contribute to creating products that generate 25 per cent lower greenhouse gas emissions compared to similar facilities in Europe and the US,” Kim Hyo Tae added.
