CALGARY, Alberta, -- Proprietary technology developed by ATCO Noise Management will
again be used to silence noise for the expansion of the world’s largest nitrogen production
complex in Mexico, the company’s President Boris Rassin announced.
By November, ATCO will design and supply its proprietary acoustical assemblies for the building’s walls and roof, acoustical personnel and equipment doors and an acoustically treated ventilation system. The site installation will take place in 2006. Value of the contract, awarded by prime contractor Linde AG, of Munich, Germany was not released. It is the second major contract awarded to ATCO Noise Management at the complex, which serves Mexico’s largest producing oilfields located more than 80 kilometres offshore. In 1999, the company was awarded the noise control contract during initial construction of the complex. The complex, owned and operated by the Cantarell Nitrogen Company, delivers nitrogen via pipeline to boost production at the oil fields in the Gulf of Mexico. "This second contract at Cantarell utilizes more of our advanced technology and is a testimony to the high quality result of previous work," said Mr. Rassin. “ATCO's successful track record in the installation of noise control systems in Mexico and unique experience in the balanced acoustical design of large industrial facilities were a deciding factor in the award of the contract. The last time ATCO worked at the site, we had a construction crew of 120 people." ATCO Noise Management, which is ISO 9001-2000 certified, provides guaranteed noise management for gas manufacturing facilities, power plants, gas compressor stations, and other noisy industrial facilities worldwide. With more than 7000 employees worldwide, ATCO Group is an Alberta-based corporation engaged worldwide in Power Generation, Utilities, and Global Enterprises, which includes industrials, technologies, logistics and energy services. |
