The Kuwait National Petroleum Company (KNPC) has appointed Kuwait-based Combined Group Contracting Company (CGC) to build 10 new filling stations across the country. The deal is said to be worth $51.25m according to the Kuwait news Agency.
The contract was signed by Mohammed Al-Mutairi, chief executive officer of KNPC and Raad Al-Abdullah, vice chairman of CGC. The deal is part of KNPC’s plans to build a total of 19 new petrol stations in Kuwait.
The stations will be built using a modern architectural style, which is said to reflect the company’s image and will incorporate various services and amenities.
