Global construction equipment manufacturer, Chicago Pneumatic, announced its winning a significant supply contract from a Kuwaiti company for supply of 100 CPLT V15 light towers for a key oil and gas project.
Chicago Pneumatic operates in the GCC through its authorised distributor, General Transportation & Equipment Company (GTE), said the company in a statement. Three other dealers were also involved in the process, but GTE ultimately secured the deal.
These CPLT V15 light towers will provide crucial illumination for an oil and gas construction project located in a remote area of Kuwaits desert, the statement added. Chicago Pneumatic said this was the largest order ever for its CPLT V15 light towers in the Middle East.
Ejazul Hassan, the equipment sales manager for GTE, said: “We put forward the CPLT V15 because it is an ideal choice for projects requiring a large fleet of light towers. During the live demonstration, our client quickly realised the metal halide option would provide them with a combination of durability, easy maintenance, and outstanding value for money.”
He added: It’s compact and lightweight design makes it really easy to move around. Its also very safe to transport between different job sites, as the light tower can be moved with the mast in a vertical position.
