Its services will cover detailed engineering that will include review and evaluation of Engineering Procurement and Construction (EPC) specifications, system’s design parameters and operating features and development of conceptual layouts, among others.

The engagement of SNC-Lavalin was formalized with the execution of an agreement on March 30, 2012 by Mr. Roel Z. Castro, President/COO of PCPC and Vice-President of A Brown and Mr. Glenn R. Frazier, Vice President for Thermal Power – Asia Pacific and Managing Director, SNC¬Lavalin (Thailand), in Pattaya, Thailand. Witnesses in this significant event are the following: Mr. Ambrosio T. Gutierrez, Head of PCPC’s Technical group; General Manager of SNC-Lavalin (Thailand) Company Limited, Mr. Supchi Neiwpipat and their Business Development Manager, Mr. Tepparat Kamiaki.

"We trust that as the project’s Owner’s Engineer, SNC-Lavalin will be bringing in their expertise and experience that they are known for worldwide,” Mr. Castro said. Mr. Frazier stated that SNC-Lavalin is excited to be working for a Company as dedicated as PCPC and is fully committed to work in synergy with its people. "We are passionate to be returning to the Philippines, and to be able to support PCPC in its goal of providing reliable and stable power supply in Visayas. We would like to thank PCPC’s management for trusting us to be part of this critical investment and we look forward to the successful completion of this project,” Mr. Frazier added.

SNC-Lavalin has over 100 years of experience in Engineering, Construction and Operations, establishing a multicultural network that spans every continent. The SNC-Lavalin companies have offices across Canada and in over 35 other countries around the world and are currently working in some 100 countries. SNC-Lavalin’s Power Group is recognized internationally as a global leader in engineering and construction in the fields of hydroelectric, nuclear and thermal power generation, power system studies, power sector reform, transmission and distribution projects.

PCPC was acquired by A Brown in November 2010 and this investment, which is A Brown’s first major venture in the power generation industry, has been progressing positively. PCPC’s Power Project has been recently categorized as a "committed project” by the Department of Energy. PCPC is now in the process of completing financial closure for the Power Project which is targeted to be fulfilled within the second quarter of the year.
