31 July 2003 - Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Tomen Corporation have received a roughly 8bn yen ($66.37m) order for two steam turbines from an Egyptian government-affiliated electric power company.

The order, signed Wednesday, is for a portion of a 1.5 million kilowatt, combined-cycle fossil fuel power plant to be built in Nubaria, 120km northwest of Cairo. The firms will build, install and test two 250 000kw steam turbines - to be manufactured at a Mitsubishi Heavy Industries plant in Nagasaki
Prefecture - for the facility. The project is slated for completion in 2005.

The plant will be a highly efficient power-generating facility, recycling heat from gas turbines to operate steam turbines.

Large-scale projects in the Middle East are now moving forward due to the end of the Iraq war. The latest order is the first one that Japanese firms have received from Egypt since the end of the war. In the spring of 2002, Mitsubishi
Heavy Industries and Tomen received an order for two gas turbines for a power plant in a Cairo suburb.
