June 13, 2008 witnessed the inking of MOU between CISDI and Arcelor Mittal for engineering and technical service of the greenfield 600,000t/a seamless tube mills in Saudi Arabia, but he project was delayed due to financial crisis and was resumed in first half of 2009. CISDI worked actively with the Owner to promote the project progress. The basic engineering was completed and detail engineering started by September 2009.

Since late 2010, Arcelor Mittal sent more liaison people to CISDI and organized the suppliers to Chongqing for kick-off meeting to clarify the design interface with CISDI, and CISDI also responded actively to support AM in accelerating the design progress.

This project is to build a greenfield seamless tube mill in Saudi Arabian, consisting of one hot rolling line, two pre-finishing lines, one end upsetting line, two heat treatment lines, one QA line, one pipeline pipe finishing line and three threading lines. CISDI was contracted to provide all plant design, some equipment design, EIC & utility system design and amenities design for the plant.
