Orascom Construction Industry has announced that it has reached an agreement with Babcock Hitachi of Japan to cooperate in the field of super critical boilers required for power stations.

OCI has lately acquired Cairo based IBSF, Ex El Nasr Company for Boilers and aims at revamping its production lines and support utilities to host the new technology, to be extended by BHK.

This deal would make OCI a sole producer and integrator of such highly sophisticated boilers deemed a common component of thermal power generation projects.
