Larsen & Toubro (L&T), a global leader in EPC projects, hi-tech manufacturing, and engineering solutions, has secured a major expansion project in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. The company’s Minerals & Metals (M&M) business vertical will build a Pellet Plant and a Direct Reduction of Iron (DRI) Plant for a leading steel producer in the region.

This significant order is a key milestone in the ongoing global initiative toward decarbonisation, reinforcing L&T’s expertise in steel plant construction. The project will focus on deploying cutting-edge metallurgical technologies to enhance efficiency and sustainability in iron and steel manufacturing.

Scope of Work

L&T’s contract includes the design, engineering, supply, erection, and construction of the Pellet and DRI plants. These plants will be developed using globally acclaimed technologies, ensuring high efficiency, safety, and environmental compliance.

The Pellet Plant will process raw iron ore into high-quality iron pellets, which are essential in steel production. The DRI Plant will further refine these raw materials into direct reduced iron, a key input for low-carbon steel manufacturing. The steel industry is undergoing a major transformation to meet stringent emission reduction targets, and this project aligns with the push for sustainable production practices.

L&T has an established track record of delivering large-scale EPC projects across mining, metallurgy, cement, steel, fertilisers, and ports.

Speaking on the project, Mr. D.K. Sen, Executive Committee Member and Advisor to the CMD of L&T, stated:

“This reflects M&M’s leadership position in executing complex iron & steel plant projects in the MENA region. It further demonstrates our commitment to delivering high-quality projects that conform to international standards in quality, safety, and on-time completion.”

L&T’s M&M vertical continues to expand its presence in global industrial projects, offering end-to-end solutions across multiple sectors. Its growing portfolio includes steel, cement, construction, and mining projects, catering to diverse industries worldwide.

L&T’s Position in the Global EPC Market

With this new order, L&T reinforces its position as a key player in the global steel manufacturing sector. The company’s commitment to technological advancements and sustainable industrial solutions has made it a trusted partner for major steel producers worldwide.

The project falls under L&T’s "Major" category, which refers to contracts valued between ₹5,000 crore and ₹10,000 crore. This substantial order is expected to enhance L&T’s revenue and strengthen its footprint in the Middle East industrial market.
