SCEE wins contracts for Rio Tinto’s Amrun bauxite project

Southern Cross Electrical Engineering (SCEE), an Australian-based electrical, instrumentation, communication and maintenance services company, has bagged two contracts for Rio Tinto’s Amrun bauxite project in Queensland. The company has received contracts worth a total of $25 million.

SCEE said in a statement, “These awards were foreshadowed in SCEE’s half-year results announcement as being included in the order book as ‘projects in the final stages of approval’.”

The first subcontract was given by Civmec worth $20 million for provision of electrical and instrumentation works for Amrun’s process facility. The second contract was awarded by Decmil Group worth $5 million for the design, supply and construction of electrical, communications, instrumentation and controls for mine’s infrastructure site.
