RathGibson Titanium Tubing to be Installed in India’s US$4.2 billion Tata Mundra Project

RathGibson Inc., Bahrain Branch Office was successful in securing for the US company, a major contract in India’s first 4,000 Megawatt Power Project. RathGibson, a leading manufacturer of welded, welded and drawn, and seamless Stainless Steel, Nickel, and Titanium tubing, has been chosen by one of India’s largest Engineering Firms, Larsen & Toubro, to supply Titanium welded tubing for the condensers for the Tata Mundra Project in India. The power plant will be built near the city of Mundra, in the state of Gujarat.

Developed by Coastal Gujarat Power Limited, the Tata Mundra Project will provide power to over 16 million customers in the states of Gujarat, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Punjab, and Haryana. The plant, an answer to the country’s energy shortage, will contribute to India’s domestic growth and commercial competitiveness.

This project is India’s first private power plant to use supercritical technology. The term “supercritical” refers to the state of water when it cannot be clearly defined as a liquid or a gas. By achieving this supercritical state, the efficiency of energy generation is increased while emissions are greatly decreased.
