Korean Firm wins $146m Contract at Bismaya

By John Lee.

South Korea's LSIS said on Tuesday that it has signed a deal to supply electrical equipment for the Bismayah New-City Project (BNCP) (pictured).

The deal, worth about 160 billion won ($146 million, 170 billion Iraqi dinars), will see the company supply equipment for gas insulated switchgear at 32 substations over the next four years.

According to a report from Korea Times, LSIS is a newcomer in the substation market in Iraq, which has long been dominated by global companies such as Siemens and ABB, but the company has previously won other business in Iraq.
