CEO Kanesan Veluppillai confirmed that Sao Paulo Metro had turned to SCOMI Engineering to complete and possibly fast track the Line 17 monorail project.
“We have an order book of RM1.32bil excluding additional Line 17 orders,” Kanesan said.
SCOMI Engineering Bhd is close to inking a partnership agreement with Turkish groups Albayrak Grubu and Siyahkalem to jointly bid for monorail jobs in Turkey and Saudi Arabia worth RM9.5 billion.
Group CEO (transport) Kanesan Veluppilai said the company had already obtained initial approvals from various agencies and the state was believed to be in favour of awarding it the project.
SCOMI Group Chief Operating Officer (Transport) Kanesan Veluppilai said the company had already obtained initial approvals from various agencies and the state is believed to be in favour of awarding it the project In Karnataka, India.
"We will be meeting state officials today to discuss further the financial aspect of developing the project on a government-to-government (G to G) basis, with the Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB) and Works Ministry backing our effort.
"Should the Karnataka government give its final approval, we hope to start our initial works within the next 10 months with the support of a joint consortium funding the project," he added.
Kanesan said this when contacted after briefing a Malaysian delegation on the second phase of the monorail system in Wadala, Mumbai.
He also said that other than the monorail project, Scomi was also keen on highway and urban housing development projects in Karnataka.
Meanwhile, the Malaysian delegation headed by the CIDB's acting chief executive, Sariah Abdul Karib, called on Maharastra state - Mumbai is the capital - Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.
The delegation also conveyed Scomi's intention to be involved in urban development and housing projects in the state.
great! now we have all the knowledgeable and good investors over this SCOMI ! It shall be one of the wonderful counter then ! Good company with good investors !!!
will sell all tomorrow first q in the morning, apart from malaysia India also got issue..
An MMRDA official who did not wished to be named confirmed the same. "The company has said that there has been a delay in the construction of monorail for which MMRDA is responsible as it has resulted into escalation of project cost. In order to solve the issue, we have appointed a three member team as the arbitrator.
" The three member team was appointed around three monts back and this includes Railway officer S D Limaye, Former PWD official Jayant Nashikkar and Anand Kulkarni. It should be noted that already the monorail project is delayed.
From its start itself, the monorail project has been facing a lot of problem which includes technical glitches.
The Jacob Circle Wadala section of monorail which was expected to be operational by the mid of this year has also been delayed as the planning authority has yet not procured the switches (the mechanical unit that helps the monorail to go from one beam to the other at the both ends of the corridor). There are two switches which are lying with customs and two more are yet to arrive to Mumbai from Malaysia. It is said that the company`s financial status is not sound enough and this is thr reason why the reason why the two switches are yet to reach Mumbai from Malaysia.
Last year MMRDA had even said that the monorail trial run would begin by January-February this year but the same didn`t not happen due to unavailability of switches. This also means that the phase-II between Wadala and Jacob Circle would begin only by this year end provided the switches reach on time. In the month of April last year mid-day had done a story (Mumbai Monorail is running a loss of Rs 1.
5 crore every month) in which it was stated that as per the MMRDA data monorails daily cost of operation is exceeding its earnings via ticket sales and a major sum goes in paying salaries of MSSC security guards manning stations.While tickets rake in Rs 2 lakh every day, it takes Rs 7 lakh per day to operate the Monorail.

SCOMI Engineering Bhd’s unit Scomi Transit Projects Sdn Bhd has SECURED a court ruling restraining Kuala Lumpur Monorail operator Prasarana Malaysia Bhd (PMB) from wrongfully terminating the RM494mil contract for the monorail fleet expansion project.
the main point here is the sole entity responsible for monorail in Malaysia is terminating the contract, why? Project delay after 5 years? Would scomi get further new project from them, if there is legal wrangle?
read the second link, there is 7 years delay in India, and the have not won any new monorail project since July 2014. Scomien CEO was replaced as well. All gloom piece of news.

RECAP:
Mumbai Phase-2 awaits rakes from Malaysia to get rolling.
The project was awarded to a consortium of Larsen and Toubro and Scomi Engineering of Malaysia.
The trial runs for the 10.24-km-long phase-2 of the monorail from Wadala to Jacob Circle will begin in April after the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) receives five additional monorail rakes (rolling stock). These are expected to reach the city from Malaysia by the month of March.

Very likely that share prices of Scomi and Scomies will go back to before the announcement of IJM enlarged shareholding. Will not be even be surprised to see a new 52 weeks low.
The High Court blocks Prasarana from terminating RM494m KL monorail expansion deal with SCOMI.
The contract that SCOMI had won was for the upgrade of the Kuala Lumpur monorail stations as well as its electrical and mechanical system, to build a new depot and to deliver 12 sets of new four-car trains to replace the two-car trains in use. (Malay Mail)
As per reported in the edge, Scomi energy's CFO give the view that the company is not as badly affected. It has order book of USD 1bil+ and is tendering USD 800mil now.. From the latest QR, 1) the company is still making profit, trading at 8 times P/E, 2) Gearing and company debt has drops significantly to RM320 mil, 3) The Ophir break even cost is re-negotiated to USD 30 to 35 per berrel...
