SEC and Bahra Cables ink SR1.3 billion deal

Bahra Advanced Cable Manufacturer Co. Ltd. (Bahra Cables) has signed a new contract for SR1.3 billion for the supply of low and medium voltage cables for its projects in the coming 12 months.

This deal comes within various agreements signed by Saudi Electricity Company (SEC) with national factories worth SR6.3 billion for the supply and delivery of medium voltage cables 13.8 to 36kV and low voltage cables 400v within 12 calendar months, to boost its cable networks Kingdomwide.

Bahra Cable received two other contracts from SEC for SR580 million earlier this year.

Talal Idriss, CEO of Bahra Cables, expressed the company's pride in its products and the trust it has in SEC, and assured that "such trusts will spur Bahra Cables to work harder in order to further develop itself to meet the terms and specifications of cables in Saudi Arabia."

Since its inception, he said, Bahra Cables uses latest international technologies to produce high quality cables that the major projects in Saudi Arabia require, as well as for exporting them to many overseas markets.

Idriss said the company's products meet all international standards, and that the company has received a number of accreditation certificates such as (KEMA, IPH, SASO, LPCB, CSA, BASEC) and others for its production of power cables.

In addition, the company has received ISO 9001: 2008 for its collection of medium and high voltage cables up to 132 kV. Bahra Cables is also the first cable manufacturer in Saudi Arabia to have received ISO 14001: 2004 and OHSAS 18001:2007, he said.

Idriss said the Kingdom's cable industry is currently undergoing major expansion to meet the growing demand for the implementation of major projects, as well as to meet the needs of the construction sector in general.

The national companies are capable to meet about 90 percent of the Kingdom's cable needs, he said, adding that the cables are produced at the highest level and in accordance with local and international standards.
