At PKN ORLEN's Warsaw offices, an annex was signed to the agreement on cooperation concerning post-war rebuilding of Iraq, concluded on April 25th 2003 between Mr Zbigniew Wróbel, President of PKN ORLEN's Executive Board, and Mr Konrad Jaskoła, President of the Executive Board of POLIMEX-CEKOP.
"The agreement is of an open nature, and we will welcome any companies that have the necessary experience and potential, and are willing to participate in this project. We are prepared to consolidate activities in this area," - with these words Mr Wróbel invited cooperation of more companies. The annex signed today proves that many reputable enterprises have found PKN ORLEN's offer attractive.
As expected, companies with a strong position in the construction industry and infrastructure development decided to join the agreement.

The agreement has been amended - Budimex SA, Alstom SA, Energomontaż-Południe SA Katowice, and Energobudowa SA have become full participants in the agreement under the signed annex. Budimex SA has undertaken to acquire contracts for supply and construction of facilities in Iraq; Alstom Power Sp. z o.o. is to acquire contracts for supplies and to prepare the related bids, conduct negotiations on the contracts, and conclude appropriate agreements; Energobudowa SA and Energomontaż-Południe SA Katowice will be engaged in the acquisition of contracts for supply and construction of facilities.
