Vietnam’s largest industrial gas plant operational

An industrial gas plant with capacity of 8,500 N cubic meters per hour, the largest of its kind in Vietnam, was Wednesday put into operation at the Hoa Phat Steel Complex in the northern Hai Duong Province by the Messer Hai Phong Industrial Gas Co.

With an investment of US$20 million, the plan is capable of producing 300 tons of oxygen and 510 tons of nitrogen a day.

Additionally, the company built a liquefied petroleum gas plant, providing 100 tons of liquefied oxygen and nitrogen and 10 tons of liquefied argon a day.

Apart from serving the Hoa Phat Steel Complex, the plant will supply these products to the industrial gas markets in the north and central regions.

The Germany-based Messer Group has been operating over 13 years in Vietnam with two companies – Messer Hai Phong Industrial Gas Co. and Messer Vietnam Industrial Gas Co.

It is leading in gas supply and related engineering service in the Southeast Asian country.

In addition to the plant in Hai Duong, Messer Group invested in building filling stations in the southern provinces of Ba Ria-Vung Tau and Binh Duong and the northern city of Hai Phong.

It is expected to inject over $50 million in industrial gas production projects in Vietnam in the coming years.

Cleared land ready for Formosa steel project this month

HCMC – The central province of Ha Tinh will hand over 3,300 hectares of cleared land for Hung Nghiep Formosa Ha Tinh Co. Ltd. this month so that the company could boost construction of its huge steel complex project, the provincial chairman said.

Vo Kim Cu, chairman of Ha Tinh Province, told the Daily on the phone on Tuesaday that site clearance of land for Formosa steel complex project was nearly complete.

“The province will definitely complete the site clearance and will hand over all cleared land for the project’s developer within this month,” he said.

Cu said the Taiwan-based Hung Nghiep Formosa Ha Tinh Co. Ltd. has expressed its eagerness to carry out the project by raising the total investment capital of the project’s first phase from US$7.9 billion to US$8.9 billion.

Total investment for the whole project in Vung Ang Economic Zone was pledged at some US$16 billion.

At the moment, the company is constructing some basic infrastructure works such as roads, boarding houses for workers, water and electricity supplies and land leveling.

“As committed, the company will start operation of the first phase of its steel plant within three years after the project owner is given cleared land, while part of Son Duong Port will begin its operation within four years,” said the provincial leader.

Main components of the steel complex project include a steel plant with total capacity of 7.5 million tons per year, Son Duong port with an annual throughput of 30 million tons, and a thermoelectric plant with an output of 1,600MW.

According to the province’s chairman, when the project’s first phase starts its production, it will create jobs for some 10,000 locals, and the number will triple to 30,000 after the two phases are completed.

“The project will help boost economic development for not only Ha Tinh, but also Quang Binh and Nghe An provinces,” Cu said.

However, a source of Vietnam Steel Association commented that although the project broke ground in 2008, it had barely made a move because of slow site clearance. This stagnation prevents the company from signing contracts for acquiring facilities from Europe to build the plant.

The Formosa steel complex is a sprawling one, encompassing five villages in Ky Anh District. To make room for this huge complex, some 1,800 families have been relocated to other places.
