Commissioned by Avinor, the Nkr2.4bn ($227.93m) contract is in turnkey partnering form and is based on the Norwegian ‘samspillsentreprise’ model.

“The teamwork behind our responses to the award criteria, including price, understanding of the task and project organisation, meant that we won out over the competition. This is important recognition for all of HENT and our partners.” 

HENT, which is a part of Ratos, and Avinor will collaborate on refining the project’s specifics to reach a consensus on the final design and cost.

Ratos Business Area Construction & Services president Johansson Gebauer said: “That Avinor has entrusted HENT to help with one of society’s most important buildings is further proof of the strong position that HENT has in an otherwise challenging construction market.  

“Ratos’ construction operations primarily focus on public sector customers and properties that are important for society. Our order books are strong and we are optimistic about the future.” 

In 2022, Freyr Battery signed an agreement with HENT for the development of its 120,000m² battery factory in Mo i Rana, Norway.
