Brief Project Description Hadhramout Investment Power Company Limited (“HIPC”) is a public limited company principally sponsored by Sabson Group (75% of shareholding), Al-Rehab Group and Arab Fund together (25% shareholding) (“Sponsors”) for undertaking power generation projects in the Republic of Yemen. The Total Cost envisaged for the entire Project is 90 Million Euro. The total power plant capacity under installation is 75 MW of gross electrical power at Al-Mukalla – Industrial District in the Republic of Yemen ,heavy furnace oil fired based fuel. The Construction activities for 52.5 MW comprising of 7 engines is under way in full swing and further extension by another 22.5 MW (3 more engines) is envisioned for April 2010. The envisaged project will supply electricity to the national grid & partly to Sabson Groups’ – Integrated Steel Plant (currently in progress) under contractual agreements. The Engines are identical of Wartsila Make , Finland, Type 18 V 32 , Quantity 10 Nos. Electrical Power Guarantee at Site Conditions is 7500 kWe (75 MW) Minimum Electrical Power guaranteed by Wartsila at Generator Terminals is 7125 kWe (71.25 MW). 3 % can be considered for Ancillary Power Usage (Designed at Site Ambient conditions of 40 deg cent). Wartsila is solely responsible for ensuring its scope of supply comprises all Equipment within the specified battery limits that is patently indispensible for a complete operating power plant in accordance with Wartsila standards.

continued The main Supply of Engine and its associated Systems & Auxiliaries is Wartsila Scope of Supply. The BOP along with Installation is entrusted to Hideleco, Egyptian Construction Company, the Contractors for this Project. The Consultants chosen for this Project is Dastur Engineering International GmbH, Germany having its office in India. Operation & Maintenance will be managed by the OEM ( Engine Supplier), hence yielding high consistency in the long run. High Reliability, Maintainability & Availability of Electric Power at all times. Conformity with environmental requirements.
