The Norwegian National Rail Administration has announced the pre-qualified companies that will compete for two EPC contracts to build the 20km long rail tunnel, Norway’s longest, for the new Follo Line between Oslo and Ski. The tunnel works have been divided into two major contracts, one for boring with four TBMs and the other using conventional Drill & Blast. The following six joint ventures will be invited to tender for the EPC TBM contract:

  • Skanska Norge and Strabag (Norway – Austria)

The following joint ventures will be invited to tender for the EPC D&B contract:

  • JV Implenia Norge, Hochtief Solution and Dragados (Norway – Germany – Spain)
