Suzano Awards EPCM Services for Greenfield Mill to Pöyry

For its greenfield pulp mill project in Brazil, Suzano Papel e Celulose has contracted Engineering, Procurement and Construction Management (EPCM) services for the Balance of Plant (BOP), and the Owners' Engineering services during the project implementation to Pöyry's Industry Business Group (Finland). The value of the assignment was not disclosed.

The capacity of the new state-of-the-art pulp mill will be 1.5 million metric tpy, and startup of the project is planned for the third quarter of 2013.

Pöyry has been involved in the project since April 2009 when Suzano awarded it a contract for conceptual and environmental studies. In March 2010, Pöyry was also awarded pre-engineering and preparatory work for the mill infrastructure.
