Cavotec Airport Market Unit Reports Series of Ground Support Orders in Qatar and USA

STOCKHOLM--(Business Wire)--
Regulatory News:

Global engineering group, Cavotec MSL (OTCBB:CVMLF), has recently signed
agreements to supply ground support equipment to several commercial and military
airports around the world. The total amount of these orders comes to
approximately EUR 4.1 million.

Cavotec MSL is to supply a range of advanced ground support systems for
applications in Qatar, at New Doha International Airport (NDIA), and in the
United States, including Las Vegas airport`s new international terminal and the
US Air Force`s Hill air base in the state of Utah.

"We are delighted that Cavotec systems have once again been selected for a
variety of applications - evidence of our products` flexibility and our focus on
engineering excellence," says Ottonel Popesco, Cavotec MSL CEO.

Cavotec is to supply 36 pop-up pit units, with 2 x 90kVA rating, and 26 access
covers for NDIA, scheduled to open in 2010. Eleven of these units are for
installation on the cargo apron, with the remaining 25 serving remote parking
positions.

Cavotec`s Airport`s market unit designs and manufactures innovative in-ground
and popup pit systems to supply aircraft with air, water, fuel and power for
commercial and military airports throughout the world. The group also supplies a
broad range of aircraft cables, connectors, cable coilers, caddies, tow-bars and
pre-conditioned air (PCAir) systems to airport operators worldwide.

While NDIA is the end user for the two Qatar orders, Cavotec working directly
with two contractors; Gamuda, one of Asia`s premier engineering and construction
companies; and leading construction group, Consolidated Contractors Company
(CCC). Cavotec will manufacture the systems and provide installation and
operator training.

Following rapid growth in both air passenger and freight in the Middle East in
recent years, the NDIA project is set to become a key international hub airport
and the new home to Qatar Airways. NDIA hopes the new airport will serve Qatar`s
aviation requirements for at least the next 50 years.

The site of the new airport, covering some 22 square kilometres, lies to the
east of Doha`s existing airport, and involves land reclamation from the Gulf.

The airport is also being designed to comfortably handle the Airbus A380 -
aircraft Cavotec`s PCAir systems cool in less than 30 minutes. For more on this
major project, please see the NDIA homepage at: http://www.ndiaproject.com/.

Cavotec has also enjoyed a series of fuelling equipment orders in the United
States in both civilian and military markets. In a wide-ranging, comprehensive
project, Cavotec will deliver 56 fuelling assemblies to Las Vegas McCarran
International airport. The equipment includes fuel hydrant, test station, high
and low point vent, and vault access pit assemblies. Tab Contractors, Inc. is
the prime contractor on this programme.

Low point drain pits are designed to remove non-fuel fluids and other
contaminants that can accumulate in aircraft fuel pipelines, and high point vent
pits remove air from the system.

The estimated shipping date for this order is at the end of this year, although
delivery can be brought forward according to customer requirements.

The equipment is for McCarran`s new Terminal 3, due to open in early-2012. The
new terminal is set to provide 14 additional gates, including six for
international passengers. McCarran handled more than 44 million passengers in
2008.

In the second of Cavotec`s recent successes in the US, the group is supplying a
complete fuel system to the US Air Force`s Hill air base in Utah. The contractor
for the project is the Rockford Corporation and delivery is scheduled for the
end of the year.

Under the deal, Cavotec will supply fuel hydrant pit assemblies, low point drain
pit assemblies, and high point vent pit assemblies. Several of the fuel hydrant
pits will be delivered with a specially designed hatch that allows for hot
refuelling using pantograph systems.

Located in northern Utah, Hill is a major US Air Force base, responsible for
coordinating a broad range of aircraft, engines, missiles, avionics and
components.

In a second and separate order for the USAF, Cavotec has been selected to
deliver a range of fuelling systems including fuel hydrant pit assemblies,
isolation valve pit assemblies complete with double block and bleed valves, low
point drain pits and a set of high point pits. Delivery is scheduled for
year-end 2009.

These elements will form the hydrant fuelling system that services the Strategic
Ramp. The units will primarily service large transport aircraft such as C-5s and
C-17s.

Under the terms of the deal, Cavotec will also provide cathodic protection (CP)
pits. CP controls corrosion of metal surfaces by making metals behave as
cathodes in electrochemical cells thus reducing rust formation and other
corrosive build-up.

"The equipment for all these orders will be produced and tested in our Costa
Mesa facility, ensuring the very highest performance standards," says Cavotec
Dabico US Inc. VP Sales/Marketing, Dan Foster.

Cavotec MSL is a leading global engineering group, supplying innovative and
environmentally friendly systems to the maritime, airports, mining, and general
industry sectors.
