Company Announcement to the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority
No. 13-2009, 30 July 2009
FLSmidth has signed a contract worth approximately 55m euros (DKK
420m) with the Indonesian cement producer PT Semen Gresik for an
8,000 tonnes per day cement production line. The contract is for the
Tuban plant, which is located about 100 km west of Surabaya in East
Java, Indonesia.
The Gresik Group is today Indonesia's largest cement producer with a
total annual capacity of approximately 18 million tonnes cement.
The scope of the contract comprises all equipment supplies for the
main part of the production line including an ATOX raw mill, an ATOX
coal mill, a preheater, a rotary kiln, a kiln burner, a clinker
cooler and silo equipment as well as a complete control system for
the entire plant and all laboratory equipment.
The new line will be Tuban's fourth production line. The three
existing ones were supplied by FLSmidth during the 1990s.
"The Indonesian cement market is very well-known to FLSmidth, and we
have a long and outstanding relationship with the Gresik Group. In
the past, FLSmidth has provided technology for three Gresik cement
plants: Tuban, Tonasa and Padang. Most of the equipment at these
plants was supplied by FLSmidth, with the first production line at
Padang dating as far back as 1910," Group CEO Jørgen Huno Rasmussen
comments.
The contract will contribute beneficially to FLSmidth's earnings
until the equipment is delivered during 2010.
