Industry Outlook, June 2021

In recent times, there has been a significant rise in industrial operations in the developing countries, wherein, the installation of new Industrial plants are likely to create an upsurge in the Heat Exchanger market. Moreover, the increasing industrialization and urbanization in countries like India and China has been directly propelling the demand for industrial activity. This has created positive opportunities for the players in this segment. Furthermore, technological advancements are also helping in growing the heat transfer efficiency of the exchangers. Numerous EPC companies are getting themselves specialized in renewable energy projects for a cleaner environment by generating useful heating and electricity from the same energy heat collector. However, the heat exchanger market is still moderately fragmented, and the biggest challenges faced by the industry is actually the lack of culture; lack of mindset to go forward with an EPC project on turnkey projects.

Furthermore, the rise in fouling problems has increased the maintenance cost for end-user industries, which is anticipated to hinder the market growth. Hence, clients expect to be provided with a Single Point EPC and LSTK Solutions and services from concept to commissioning. The players in this space are also expected to hold in-house set up for FEED, Basic, and Detailed Engineering. Moreover, in-house state-of-the-art fabrication facility which can deliver cost effective EPC and LSTK projects on time and which holds best-in-class quality is what clients expect today to meet their requirements.

A Humble Start

Starting as an engineering company in the year 1996, the company got its very first Caustic Soda EPC project in Bangladesh in year 2000. Thereafter, they entered into Hydrogen Peroxide, Sulphuric Acid and Calcium Chloride. They are also into specialty chemicals, and have delivered several other projects/products such as Anisole, Sulfolane, and Sulfur Bentonite.

Competency in the Field

It was a proud moment for the firm when Abu Dhabi-based company, Al Ghaith Industries wanted to collaborate with them to set up a 60 TPD Greenfield chlor alkali plant. As Nuberg EPC offers solutions for chlorine derivatives, it established a calcium chloride plant to mitigate the potential risks involved. Next, Al Ghaith Industries decided to award another contract to Nuberg EPC. This involved the construction of a 125 TPD calcium chloride plant which would be constructed parallel to the chlor alkali plant to ensure chlorine usage.

Because of the absolute work quality and timely delivery, Nuberg EPC was once again chosen to expand the 60 TPD chlor alkali plant to 120 TPD. This was commissioned in early 2018. With delivery in only 15 months, this was a record turnaround. With three plants delivered in quick succession, Nuberg EPC demonstrated that they can plan long term projects which enable clients to get on with their business of generating profits.

A Robust Team that Guarantees Successful Projects

If we speak of the team, the company has a team of 700+ professionals with 300+ engineers. They also have a state-of-theart manufacturing plant with a construction team of 200+ professionals and licensed contractors with international expertise.

By planning big in energy infrastructure, it won a new project in India. This Hydrogen Purification Dispensing Plant project is the first-ever fuel cell grade plant in India, wherein, the hydrogen produced at the plant will be used as fuel for vehicles. Hence, its success of the plant will enable a revolution in India.

"We enjoy working on large-scale schemes. All at the same, we are focusing on large-scale chemistry (specialty chem) and fertilizer work. As a responsible corporate citizen, Nuberg is committed towards introducing world-class technologies and processes to India. Similarly, we seek global opportunities by capitalizing on our Indian strengths while expanding our global footprints in developing and neighboring sectors. We need ample experience to offer best-in-class quality projects on schedule on budget," AK Tyagi concludes.
