Saudi aviation authorities have awarded Perma-Pipe Saudi Arabia, a subsidiary of US-based MFRI Inc., new orders exceeding $27m for the first phase of the district cooling system expansion project at King Abdul-Aziz International (KAIA) airport in Jeddah, Arab News has reported. These orders are in addition to the $23m awarded earlier, bringing the total of major project work in Saudi Arabia to nearly $50m. The total facilities covered by the new orders span over 100 sq km including the chilled water distribution system, utility plants, utility tunnel, plant nursery, and transportation centre with integrated rail station. "We have spent two years investing in direct in-country capacity in Saudi Arabia. The Jeddah Airport is the largest single project we have received since we started our business activities in the Middle East some seven years ago," said MFRI chief executive, Bradley Mautner.
