L&T expects more modular infra business after Australian project success | Company Business News
Larsen & Toubro has shipped Australia's largest urea plant from its Kattupalli yard in Tamil Nadu, delivering it in 110 modular pieces. After this success, the company expects more modular project orders. This market is worth $100-150 billion and is currently led by China and South Korea. Indian firms may win more work as global buyers look beyond China.
Key Statutory Highlights
- L&T shipped a 2.3 million-tonnes-per-annum urea plant to Perdaman Chemicals & Fertilisers in Karratha, Western Australia, in 110 modular pieces across 23 voyages.
- L&T deputy managing director Subramanian Sarma said modular infrastructure projects represent a $100-150 billion market opportunity, presently dominated by Chinese and South Korean companies.
- L&T runs three modular manufacturing yards at Kattupalli, Hazira in Gujarat and Sohar in Oman.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:If your business does fabrication, engineering or export logistics, review whether your capacity could suit large modular contracts, and speak to your advisor before quoting for overseas work, since demand and competition are still shifting.
