Lintec UCP120 Concrete Batching Plant Supports Petrochemical Progress in Saudi Arabia
In Saudi Arabia’s Eastern Province, a powerful piece of German-engineered machinery is quietly revolutionising concrete production for a major petrochemical development.
Multi-Task, one of the region’s leading sub-contractors, has deployed the Lintec UCP120 Concrete Batching Plant to support the construction of large-scale storage tanks commissioned by Engineering for the Petroleum and Process Industries (Enppi).
This high-capacity batching plant, acquired through Lintec & Linnhoff’s exclusive Saudi distributor, Middle East Development Co. Ltd. (MEDCO), began operations in December 2023. The UCP120 isn’t just another cog in the construction machine – it’s become the backbone of a project where efficiency, precision, and performance are non-negotiable.
“The Lintec UCP120 is a game-changer for large-scale infrastructure developments,” said Mr. Odai Ismail, MEDCO Regional Manager / Eastern Region. “Its high production capacity, efficiency, and durability make it an ideal choice for demanding applications like Enppi’s petrochemical storage project. We are proud to support Multi-Task in delivering this critical initiative with a reliable and high-performance solution.”
Meeting the Demands of Mega Projects
When you’re tasked with pouring vast amounts of concrete for mission-critical petrochemical storage tanks, your equipment has to be up to scratch. Multi-Task’s choice of the Lintec UCP120 shows a clear focus on high-output, precision technology capable of meeting tight schedules and strict quality requirements.
With a production capacity of 120 cubic metres per hour, the UCP120 ensures non-stop output to keep the project moving. But it’s not just about speed – consistency and quality are key. The plant’s fully computerised process control system delivers accurate batching and ensures every mix meets rigorous specifications.
Key Advantages of the Lintec UCP120
This isn’t Multi-Task’s first rodeo, and they weren’t going to settle for anything less than a proven performer.
Here’s what makes the Lintec UCP120 such a standout:
- High Output: Cranks out up to 120 m³/hr of concrete – ideal for massive infrastructure jobs.
- Automated Precision: Advanced control tech ensures consistent mix quality every single time.
- Customisation Options: Designed to adapt to unique project needs, with configurable components.
- Smart Aggregate Handling: Multiple bins and a central-discharge belt system keep material flowing efficiently, slashing truck wait times.
- Built to Last: European engineering and durable materials mean it thrives under tough conditions.
Fast Deployment, Faster Results
One of the main draws for Multi-Task was the speed with which MEDCO could deliver and commission the UCP120. Time is money, especially in petrochemical construction, where any delay can have significant downstream impacts.
Thanks to its modular design and pre-assembled components, the UCP120 was quickly transported and set up on-site without a hitch. That rapid turnaround enabled Multi-Task to stick to Enppi’s tight timelines, getting concrete flowing right on schedule.
MEDCO also brought another trump card to the table – stellar after-sales support. Their team was on-hand throughout the setup process and continues to provide technical support, ensuring seamless daily operations.
Enppi’s Role in Shaping the Region
For those unfamiliar with Enppi, it’s one of the Middle East’s heavy hitters in the oil, gas, power, and petrochemical sectors. As an EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) powerhouse, Enppi leads critical infrastructure initiatives not just in Saudi Arabia but across the wider MENA region.
This particular storage tank project is part of Saudi Arabia’s broader vision to enhance its downstream capabilities and strategic reserves. With global energy markets in flux, the Kingdom is doubling down on robust, future-proof infrastructure – and Enppi is front and centre in that push.
Proven Across the Globe
Saudi Arabia isn’t the only place where the Lintec UCP120 has made waves. This batching plant has earned its stripes across multiple continents, adding weight to Multi-Task’s decision to bring it onboard.
Notable Deployments:
- Mombasa Port, Kenya: Customised for complex port expansion works, the UCP120 handled massive concrete pours with ease.
- UAE Commercial Projects: Supplied high-grade concrete for diverse commercial builds, demonstrating adaptability and consistency.
- Across Asia: From the Philippines to Vietnam and Sri Lanka, the plant has been instrumental in large-scale infrastructure developments.
In each case, the UCP120 delivered not just in terms of output, but in reliability and reduced operational headaches.
Raising the Bar for Future Projects
The Enppi project is more than just a job site – it’s a glimpse into the future of infrastructure delivery in the Gulf. Multi-Task’s use of the UCP120 exemplifies how advanced construction technologies can elevate project execution, mitigate risks, and meet the region’s ambitious growth targets.
Moreover, it signals a growing trend in the region: contractors are leaning into innovation and demanding higher standards from equipment suppliers. Plants like the UCP120 are no longer nice-to-haves – they’re essential for staying competitive in a high-stakes environment.
And with Saudi Arabia set to pump billions into infrastructure as part of its Vision 2030 goals, smart investments like this one could become the new norm.
Solid Foundations for Tomorrow
There’s no doubt about it – the Lintec UCP120 is pulling its weight and then some on Enppi’s petrochemical storage project. With Multi-Task at the helm and MEDCO providing trusted support, this powerful piece of kit is helping shape a cornerstone of Saudi Arabia’s energy infrastructure.
As the project progresses, the UCP120’s role will remain critical. But more than that, it sets a new benchmark for how mega-projects in the region should be tackled: with precision, speed, and cutting-edge tech leading the charge.
