KBR (NYSE:KBR) today announced that it has been awarded a
contract to provide building services engineering for a $130
million USD apartment complex in Papua New Guinea (PNG).
The apartment complex is being developed by PNG’s Motor Vehicles
Insurance Limited in partnership with Moss Capital, and will
include four 8-story apartment buildings, 24 town houses and 17
villas, with a total of 143 apartments.
“This project will highlight KBR’s broad project expertise and
long-standing track record of delivering high quality service to
its customers,” said Colin Elliott, President, KBR Infrastructure
and Minerals. Additionally, KBR will work to deliver technically
advanced and environmentally-friendly services to this major
residential development project.
KBR’s Sydney, Brisbane and Adelaide-based engineers will design
a power system using load shedding which will lessen the usage of
out air-conditioning condenser units. This action will decrease the
size of back-up generators needed in the event of power supply
interruptions. The complex will also have an on-site water storage
system that houses a 24-hour water supply, and filtration and
chlorination system.
KBR is a global engineering, construction and services company
supporting the energy, hydrocarbon, government services, minerals,
civil infrastructure, power and industrial markets. For more
