Upstream OnlineChinese contractor secures role on Aramco East-West pipeline | UpstreamChinese contractor SEPCO Electric Power Construction Corporation has secured a contract from Saudi Aramco for a fencing project along the Saudi state giant's East-West pipeline. The project is designed to strengthen low-altitude security protection around Aramco's core assets. The contract represents a routine infrastructure services award in the oil and gas sector.The Times of IndiaGMR vs Sepco: SC dismisses Chinese firm appeal in Rs 1,100 crore Odisha thermal power plant case - The Economic TimesThe Supreme Court of India dismissed Sepco Electric Power Construction Corp's appeal, upholding the Orissa High Court's decision to set aside a Rs 1,100 crore arbitral award in favor of the Chinese construction contractor against GMR Kamalanga Energy. The apex court found that the arbitral tribunal had improperly rewrote the original EPC contract and exhibited discriminatory treatment toward GMR, which violated the fundamental policy of Indian law. The dispute stemmed from delays and technical issues during the construction of three 350 MW coal-fired thermal power plants at Kamalanga village in Odisha's Dhenkanal district.PR NewswireGreen cooperation speeds up South Africa's steps in energy transitionChina has constructed multiple renewable energy projects across South Africa, including the 100-megawatt Redstone Concentrated Solar Thermal Power plant in Northern Cape—the first molten salt solar thermal project in sub-Saharan Africa, built by SEPCOIII Electric Power Construction Co., Ltd. The solar tower, standing approximately 250 meters tall, is expected to supply 480 gigawatt-hours of electricity annually to 200,000 South African households. Chinese companies have also established wind power projects in Eastern Cape and Northern Cape provinces, with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa highlighting these initiatives as achieving world-leading standards and delivering significant benefits to South African citizens.PR NewswireGlobal Times: BRI's emphasis on environmentally friendly practices has benefited Central Asia countriesChina and Central Asian countries have been deepening cooperation on green energy and ecological protection projects under the Belt and Road Initiative, including the restoration of the Aral Sea region, drip irrigation demonstrations, and renewable energy infrastructure. Chinese companies including Dongfang Electric Corporation, SEPCOIII Electric Power Construction, and Universal Energy have built or are constructing hydropower, wind, and solar power projects across Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, with a combined investment portfolio exceeding $2.7 billion in hydroelectric facilities alone. These projects aim to help Central Asian countries meet renewable energy targets—Uzbekistan targeting 25-30% renewables by 2030—while transferring technology and training local personnel to operate facilities independently.
