The A/U fertiliser project has a main factory area ofabout 23ha and a 3.3km wharf with a total investment of 1.3billion USD. It was designed to produce 2,200 tonnes of NH3 and 3,900 tonnes ofurea daily. That is also LILAMA's first project constructed abroadwith a complete scope of work including supply of materials, arrangement,supply of human resources, and construction machinery. LILAMA is also the firstVietnamese contractor to carry out a project with such scope of work abroad.
