Aberdeen-based HVAC & Refrigeration Engineering (HVAC & R) hailed success out of Africa and other overseas markets yesterday.
The engineering firm – part of Nucore Group – said it was enjoying significant export success, particularly in the Middle East and Africa.
Among the contracts recently secured is a £3million project in west Africa for the design, build, supply and installation of heating, ventilation, air conditioning units for several offshore installations.
The project has involved extensive site surveys to plan and prepare for the removal and installation of 26 heating, ventilation and air conditioning units.
Engineering and manufacturing of the first unit was completed last month and is due for installation in July.
HVAC & R director Shaun Struthers said: “This is a significant contract for us, contributing to our revenue targets for the year and securing a number of positions.
“It’s a unique project which has required very specific and careful design, build and planning to meet a complex installation process.
“We’re now looking forward to completion and installation of the remaining units throughout the remainder of this year and into 2018.”
Other recent projects for the firm include the design, manufacture and supply of air conditioning and condensing units on vessels working offshore of Angola, and the supply of 26 water tank chiller units for a client in the Middle East.
Nucore Group chief executive Graham Thomson said: “HVAC & R has performed very well with efforts to further grow its overseas sales now paying dividends.”
