29 de enero de 2014, 10:54Madrid, Jan 29 (Prensa Latina) The Navantia group from Galicia, Spain, expressed satisfaction today with the contract awarded by Petroleos Mexicanos (Pemex) for the construction of two floating hotels (vessels to support oil exploration) for $407 million.
For Navatia, its winning bid represents a million work hours at the Fene and Ferrol shipyards, due to it being a joint bid with the Barreras company, which operates the former.
The contract will ensure work during over two years for more than 3,000 people, despite unions criticizing the management agreement, considering that it does not cover industry losses in recent times.
In the tender, J. Barreras Sons, and Navantia presented the proposal as part of a subsidiary of PMI Comercio Internacional – a Pemex subsidiary – which includes the Kol-Tov and PMI Trading firms.
A Pemex statement released today said that the joint proposal had offered the lowest possible solvent price, and that seven companies had qualified for the final stage of the bidding.
The offer included the cost of services required for 10 years starting July 13, 2016, for the two ships, with capacity for 700 people each, 131 meters long and 27 wide.
Navantia has been without orders since December 9, when it delivered the Adelaide megaship to Australia.
