India’s Mundra Petrochemical taps Nuberg to build chlor-alkali plant

Indian producer Mundra Petrochemicals Ltd has awarded engineering services company Nuberg EPC a contract to build its new 2,200 tonne/day chlor-alkali project in the western Gujarat state.

Nuberg expects to complete the project within 15 months, without disclosing financial details of the contract.

Nuberg EPC is a global engineering and turnkey project management company based in Noida in the northern Uttar Pradesh state.

Mundra Petrochemical is a subsidiary of Adani Enterprises Ltd, which is owned by major Indian conglomerate Adani Group.

In March 2023, the company halted construction of the PVC project as it worked to secure project funding.

A consortium of banks led by state-owned State Bank of India had agreed in July last year to finance a significant part of the company’s PVC project, according to media reports.
