22 September 2006 -- Nexans, a cable industry supplier, has been awarded a €100 million contract by the Abu Dhabi Water & Electricity Authority (ADWEA) to supply and install submarine and land cables to create a new 132kV power link between Abu Dhabi's mainland network and Delma Island. The Delma contract is the largest Nexans contract signed this year in the Middle East, and underlines the strength of the high voltage power infrastructures market in an area where industrialization, energy and communication network interconnection programs are rapidly growing. Almost 80 percent of Nexans sales in this region are tied to high voltage projects. Nexans has two production plants in the region located in Lebanon and Egypt. The cables will be manufactured at Nexans' Halden plant in Norway. The project is due to be completed by the end of 2008.
