Parent company Babcock & Wilcox Enterprises provides turnkey supplies and services for construction and maintenance projects in the power industry globally. In December, another unit of B&W announced two contracts to supply soot blowers and furnace cleaning systems for two coal-fired power plants under construction in Asia. The combined value of these contracts is more than $4 million.
