MSA, a.s. has won tender for delivery of valves for Fortum AB, a Swedish distributor of heat and electric energy.
“Company Fortum AB, which is number one in distribution of heat energy in Scandinavia will be supplied with ball valves in nominal sizes 16″ – 36″, Class 150 during April and May in total value of EUR 307,000. The oil & natural gas industry is not developed enough in Sweden. An alternative for use of MSA production in this region became power plants that distribute heat,” explains situation on Swedish market Mr. Jan Krzywoň – sale manager for European market.
The valves were designed for a reconstruction project of a main heat-distribution pipeline. Pipeline network is located under Stockholm.
“Entering Swedish market is significant step forward for MSA. We have been cooperating with Scandinavian clients for more than 13 years. The most important companies that we cooperated with are Neste Oil from Finland or Norwegian companies FMC Kongsberg and Metering, where we dispatched almost 300 pieces of valves in total value of more than EUR 1.4M,” sums up sales director of MSA Mr. Roman Baláž.
