Wed Aug 19, 8:12 AMHANOI, Vietnam & HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cavico Corp. (OTCBB: CVIC.OB), a leading infrastructure development company based in Vietnam, today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Cavico Transport Construction JSC (“Cavico Transport”), has signed a contract for overburden stripping and stone processing with Dakdrinh Hydropower Joint Stock Company for work related to Dakdrinh’s hydropower plant in the Son Tan village, located in Quang Ngai province. The value of the overburden stripping and stone processing contract has revenue of approximate $1.4 million.
Dakdrinh plant, a 125 Megawatt hydropower plant, is considered to be the largest hydropower plant on Tra Khuc River serving power to Vietnam’s central region. According to the terms of this agreement, the scope of work for the first stage of the project entails the extraction of 700,000 cubic meters of stone in a five month period. Once extracted, the stones will be processed and used for construction purposes. The stone processing phase is expected to be completed at the end of 2013.
Cavico Transport also signed a bridge construction contract with the Rehabilitation Management Unit of Son La Hydropower plant, which revenue is valued at approximately $1.4 million. As part of the contract with Son La Hydropower, Cavico will be responsible for constructing four bridges along the road leading from Interstate 279 to Ca Nang in Muong Chien village, Son La province. A major part of construction work will involve pre-stressed concreting and concrete pole piling. Cavico expects to complete this project within a 23 month period. Interstate 279 is an important highway connecting the Northern provinces of Quang Ninh, Bac Giang, Lang Son, and Son La and is the fourth longest highway in Vietnam. The road being constructed by Cavico will improve the route to Son La hydropower plant, which will enable the project to be completed in a timely manner.
Mr. Hai Thanh Tran, vice president of Cavico Corp., stated, “We are pleased to announce these two contracts. With our extensive experience in managing similar hydropower and bridge construction projects, we look forward to this opportunity to help Dakdrinh Hydropower and Son La Hydropower as they continue to expand their facilities and serve their customers in the region. We are confident that our team will successfully complete these projects efficiently.”
