The Shaw Group Inc. today announced it has been awarded a new contract to implement a fleetwide services program for Saudi Electricity Company’s oil and gas-fired power plants throughout the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

In April 2010, Shaw was awarded a multi-phase study to define and recommend operational improvements for Saudi Electricity Company’s fleet of power plants. Under the new contract, Shaw will implement a comprehensive asset management and performance diagnostic program that will address most aspects of 37 operating power plants with a concentration on safety, maintenance, staffing, benchmarking and corporate environmental programs.
