Umm Bab cement plant line 3 (4,000 tpd) QNCC (Qatar) 

In July 2004, QNCC (Qatar National Cement Company), a 45%- state-owned company, awarded Fives FCB with a contract for the turnkey supply of a new 4,000 tpd production line at its Umm Bab site, on the West coast of the Qatari peninsula.

Equipped with the Fives FCB technologies, the Umm Bab line no.3 thus benefits from the advantages of its proprietary equipment such as the third generation TSVTM classifier and the Zero-NOx precalciner.

Fives FCB worked extremely quickly in fulfilling this contract: 20,000 tonnes of cement had already been produced by the end of 2005, after commissioning the cement grinding plant ahead of the schedule, to meet the huge demand on the Qatari market.
The other plants, including the clinker burning line, were commissioned at the end of 2006. 

This new order has underscored the trust placed by QNCC in Fives FCB’s capabilities as a turnkey contractor, the latter having already supplied and brought into service the complete 2,000 tpd Umm Bab no.2 plant, in 1998.
