Boustead bags S$68mln contracts globally

Boustead Singapore Limited has announced its engineering division has secured S$68 million in contracts from the oil & gas industries globally.

The contracts involve the design, process engineering and construction of key process equipment for oil refineries, petrochemical plants and gas processing plants in Australia,Brazil, Saudi Arabia and the United Kingdom.

These follow shortly after being awarded a contract of S$107 million. This will now raise the company’s order book by S$175 million to a level above S$500 million.

Mr Wong Fong Fui, Chairman and Group Chief Executive Officer of Boustead said, “We are delighted to have secured several contracts at major energy developments worldwide, against intense international competition. Coincidentally, these contracts come shortly after Boustead Projects secured its largest contract to date, a S$107 million contract to design-and-build an integrated facility for a world leading power systems corporation.”

The above contracts are not expected to have a material impact on the profitability, earnings per share and net asset value per share of Boustead in the current financial year ending 31 March 2010.

However, the contracts are expected to have positive material impact on the profitability and earnings per share of Boustead in the next financial year ending 31 March 2011.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
